兩個很 powerful 的 model,今天進公司第一件事就是拿便條紙寫下:Discipline to say no
Ajit: Discipline to say no to the deals that you don’t feel a properly priced or meet your requirement. Learn to say no. If you have that discipline, that’s more than 50% of the battle.
如果這筆交易不符合你設定的條件,或是價格不是很甜,養成說不的紀律。學習說不。一但有了這樣的紀律,這場遊戲你就已經先贏了 50%
這個說不的紀律,再拓廣一點來說就會是:不要害怕說 "我不知道"。這個說不知道的能力,一開始可能還相對容易,但慢慢年紀比較老、職位比較高,如果可以繼續維持這樣的能力,那真的很強
Buffett: Don’t do anything in live where if somebody asks you the reason why you’re doing it, the answer is everybody else is doing it. If you just cancel that as a rationale for doing any activity in life, you’ll live a better life whether it’s at the stock market or anyplace
在生活中,絕對不要因為其他人都在做那件事情,所以你也理所當然地去做。如果能以此原則去生活,你的生活或投資會過得更好
