“Value investing requires a great deal of hard work, unusually strict discipline, and a long-term investment horizon. Few are willing and able to devote sufficient time and effort to become value investors, and only a fraction of those have the proper mind-set to succeed.” MindLongHardAbleValuesTermDealsEffortWillingHard WorkDisciplineSucceedInvestmentInvestingLong TermSufficientHorizonInvestorsStrictFractionsMind Set Author:Seth Klarman
“I was a lousy academic. I spent most of my time in the cafeteria. But I met fantastic people from all kinds of fields; law, medicine, history, and they eventually dispersed all over the world to do their fieldwork. I liked the way these people committed to the long term in a sincere, visionary way. Their projects weren't about "next season." They were ten-year commitments. They were lifestyle choices that had traditions of fieldwork built into them - moving around, living on location, discipline, a real rigor for research.” PeopleWorldWayYearsKindLongRealMovingLawChoicesNextTermFieldsDisciplineMetsTenProjectsResearchCommitmentBuiltTraditionSeasonsMedicineCommittedLifestyleAll KindsFantasticLong TermMy TimeSincereAcademicLocationVisionariesLiving OnRigorCafeteriaLifestyle ChoicesFieldwork Author:Aleksandra Mir

“The most self-disciplined people in the world aren't born with it, but at one point they start to think differently about self discipline. Easy, short-term choices lead to different long-term consequences. Difficult short-term choices lead to easy long-term consequences. What we thought was the easy way led to a much more difficult life. I think that motivation is sort of like a unicorn that people chance like a magic pill that will make them suddenly want to work hard.

“I've seen some springs that ended up being terrible winters. We human beings are gregarious. We can't live alone. For our lives to be possible, we depend on society. It's one thing to overturn a government or block the streets. But it's a different matter altogether to create and build a better society, one that needs organization, discipline and long-term work. Let's not confuse the two of them. I want to make it clear: I feel sympathetic with that youthful energy, but I think it's not going anywhere if it doesn't become more mature.” IfsThinkingWantNeedsFeelsHumansLongTwoDifferentMatterGovernmentEnergyTermHuman BeingsPowerfulClearOur LivesOne ThingStreetsDependsDisciplineTerribleSpringOrganizationWinterHumbleBlockLong TermMatureSympatheticPoorestGregarious Author:Jose Mujica
