A healthy lesson from Warren Buffet
Let’s imagine every one at a high-school age can get the car of their dreams. You can pick it out, any colour, you name it.
What’s the catch?
That car is going to be the only one you have your entire life. Now what are you going to do, knowing that, that is the only car you will have?
You are going to love that car, your going to take care of it.
How does this apply to me?
You’ll probably get more than one car in your life, but you’ll only get one body, one mind and one soul. And that’s all your going to get. And those probably feel terrific now, but they have to last you a lifetime.
