The book on Charlie Munger and Warren Buffett: All I Want To Know Is Where I’m Going To Die So I’ll Never Go There: Buffett & Munger – A Study in Simplicity and Uncommon, Common Sense

Shane Parish summarizes his main take aways, in his words:

1. Wisdom is prevention.
2. The fundamental algorithm of life: repeat what works.
3. The wise of every generation discover the same truths.
4. Avoid distraction.
5. Spend time thinking.
6. Position yourself for opportunity.
7. Invert: Much of success comes from simply avoiding common paths to failure.
8. Avoiding stupidity is easier than seeking brilliance.
9. The weakest link causes the problem.

My add to Shane’s list is simple–become a great CEO of You, Inc. Then lead, engage, serve, love, and improve.

Add then subtract

Add then subtract.

For knowledge, add.

For wisdom, subtract.

Only from chronic adding does habitual subtracting become wise.
