Qualities in a person, for Warren Buffett

de
carnagenyc - Value

Warren Buffett:

He asks each student to pick a classmate. Not just any classmate, but the classmate you would choose if you could have 10% of their earnings for the rest of their life. Which classmate would you pick and why?

“To Buffett, the answer is none,” writes Michael Eisner in Working Together: Why Great Partnerships Succeed. “These qualities are choices people make. People decide whether or not to be generous, they decide whether or not to take credit for things they didn’t do, whether or not to keep score in life, whether or not to be envious.”

Punishment for being early

de
mat_n - Time

When you apply for a famous University, as far as I know, you get preferential treatment if you apply early. You have better chances if you apply early in the academic year, rather than keep postponing things. While others haven’t even submitted their application, you might get an early Yes.

In Romania, if you do things early, you get almost no advantage. Generally, to keep things „equal”, various entities wait for the person who keeps delaying things.

Thus, doing things at the last moment is gratifying.

Who does a job early? Generally, a good professional in their field. Yet, this is not acknowledged.

Do things early in Romania, and likely there’s a punishment for that.

Automatic Lover – The Structure of Magic

de
Mr. Nixter - Disney Magic

In NLP, there’s a thing called „The Structure of Magic”.

When I listened to Real McCoy – Automatic Lover (Call For Love), I recalled the book (Amazon.com: The Structure of Magic, Vol. 1: A Book About Language and Therapy: 8601200393590: Richard Bandler, John Grinder, Virginia Satir, Gregory Bateson: Books).

It’s the same pattern – „Mathematics/Structure/Logic/Automation” vs. „Love/Magic/Soul/Spirit”.
