The importance of long-term planning
Success comes when you do what you love. Warren Buffet lives by this rule and urges us all to live by it too. When you do what you love and are passionate about it, he says, youâll never work a day in your life.

Warren Buffett prides himself in making swift, well-informed decisions and acting on them just as fast. He deems any unnecessary dilly-dallying as âthumb sucking.â Do your research thoroughly, well in advance. Gather all the necessary information and act decisively. Say âNoâ if you have to.

Even when you are dealing with friends and relatives, have all the specifics of the deal spelt out beforehand, including your monetary benefits. Your bargaining leverage is always greatest before you begin a jobâthatâs when you have something to offer that the other party wants.

Warren Buffett is well-known for being frugal and encouraging others to do so. Heâs lived in the same house he bought when he was 28 for a mere $31,500 to date. Being frugal and conservative with your spending helps you avoid waste. And when you avoid waste, you make your money work for you and save enough to invest for the future.
âIf you buy things you do not need, soon you will have to sell things you need.â

Warren Buffet has never borrowed excessively, even when he was starting out in business. He says, âNothing sedates rationality like large doses of effortless money.â He has always negotiated with creditors to pay what he can, and when he is debt-free, saved his money to invest. Living on handouts, loans and credit cards will not make you rich.

Look broadly for investment opportunities and reinvest like you have a single lifetime âpunch cardâ with only 20 punchesâmake each one count. Even a small investment can generate great wealth if you are diligent enough to favor substance over form.
âI try to buy stock in businesses that are so wonderful that an idiot can run them. Because, sooner or later, one will.â

Donât base your decisions, successes or even happiness on what others say or do. Buffet notes: âYou donât have to swing at everythingâyou can wait for your pitch. The problem when youâre a money manager is that your fans keep yelling, âSwing, you bum!'â Instead of following the crowd, measure yourself by your âInner Scorecardââyour own standards and not the worldâs.

Warren Buffett says, âTime is the friend of the wonderful business, the enemy of the mediocre.â The long and rocky road to success holds many valuable lessons and makes victory that much sweeter. So, be patient and keep pressing on. Donât obsess over quick results and instant gratification. Remember:
âNo matter how great the talent or efforts, some things just take time. You canât produce a baby in one month by getting nine women pregnant.â

To quit is not to give up. Warren Buffet makes mistakes just like any one of us, but he learns from them. He recalls: âI bought a company in the mid-â90s called Dexter Shoe and paid $400 million (Worth over $400 billion in 2021) for it. And it went to zero.â He is, however, quick to add: âShould you find yourself in a chronically leaking boat, energy devoted to changing vessels is likely to be more productive than energy devoted to patching leaks.â Know when to walk away from a loss.
âYou only have to do a very few things right in your life so long as you donât do too many things wrong.â

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!
