Warren Buffett’s 10 Secrets to Success in Life

1. You can do just a few things well in life, as long as you avoid making too many mistakes.

2. If you find holes in your boat, the energy spent replacing it will be more productive than the energy spent trying to patch the holes.

3. You don’t necessarily have to do extraordinary things to achieve extraordinary results.

4. The lesson from studying history is that people don’t learn from history.

5. You don’t feel the constraints of your habits until they become so strong and burdensome that you can no longer break them.

6. Some people have an unfortunate habit of making simple things difficult.

7. Nothing undermines good judgment and rational thinking more than vast amounts of money earned without effort.

8. It takes twenty years to build a good reputation and just five minutes to ruin it. If you keep that in mind, you’ll act differently.

9. It’s best to spend time with people who are better than you. Choose people whose behavior is better than yours, and you’ll naturally find yourself following their example.

10. The price of something is what you pay for it, but its value is the benefit you get from buying it. The best time to buy anything—from

socks to stocks—is when its price is low.

Warren Buffett’s 10 Investment Secrets

1. The most important quality for an investor is “temperament,” not “intelligence.” Investors need a “calm disposition” that doesn’t make them “overly happy” when things are going well

or turn against them when they aren’t.

2. Successful investing takes time, discipline, and patience. Some parts of the investment process take time, no matter how much talent or effort is involved.

3. You don’t have to leap over high hurdles to reach your goal. Look around for the lowest hurdles that suit your abilities and keep moving forward.

4. In the short term, the market is a competitive arena; in the long term, it is a “weighing machine.”

5. Opportunities don’t come around often. When it rains gold, make sure you hold out a bucket, not a thimble (the short metal tube a tailor wears on a finger).

6. Diversification is protection against the consequences of ignorance, but it doesn’t make much difference to people who know what they’re doing.

7. If an investor isn’t willing to hold a stock for ten years, they shouldn’t hold it for even ten minutes. They should make a list of companies whose

profits grow steadily over the years, because those will be the same companies whose market value steadily increases.

8. Investment success is not determined by assessing a sector’s impact on society or its growth rate. Rather, it depends on identifying each company’s individual competitive advantage.

and assessing how sustainable that advantage is.

9. Businesspeople become better investors, and investors become better businesspeople.

10. It is far better to buy an excellent company at a fair price than an average company at an excellent price.

Buffett also drew many insights and lessons from his long journey of struggle, which spanned more than five decades and offers a broader perspective and deeper

understanding of the realities of life and investing.
