If you want to get what you want, you have to make yourself worthy of it. Trust, success and admiration are all earned through hard work—— Charlie Munger Recently, I saw a documentary film with deep feelings - "becoming Warren Buffett". This is the latest documentary about Buffett made by HBO this year. It is the best documentary I have made so far and the closest to his real life. In this documentary, Buffett frankly lost many auras and revealed his most real side. For example, when Buffett goes to work every morning, he will drive by McDonald's to buy a breakfast and take it to the office. There must be a cup of Coca Cola on his desk. Watching the documentary, you will find that even a distant investment master like Buffett and the world's richest man are just an ordinary old man, very approachable, and even have many small problems like us. But this documentary also shows us a fact: If a person wants to achieve extraordinary achievements in his life, he is doomed to be inseparable from reading and lifelong learning. Buffett devoted his whole life to studying and researching stock investment, and devoted himself to learning. He began to read and learn all the books related to stock investment since childhood. After he had read all his father's collections, he went to the library of Columbia University to read in the ocean of books. Through his efforts, he became a professor of Columbia University at that time and a student of the famous value investment master benjamingrahham. But in real life, he is very stupid in other things, even the kitchen utensils are not clear. He also laughed at his good luck and married a virtuous wife, which enabled him to have a happy family without eating McDonald's all his life. Buffett said: everyone needs to focus on doing one thing well throughout his life. Buffett spends most of his time alone in his study or office. He would get up on time every day and spend a lot of time reading all kinds of news, financial reports and books. His office has no computers, no smartphones, only books on the shelves behind him and a table of newspapers. On Buffett's reading, his partner charliemunger once said: "In my life, I have met smart people from all walks of life. None of them don't read every day - no, none at all. You may be surprised at how much Warren reads. He is a book with two legs.". Buffett said he was not afraid of death. He felt that he had a very full and happy life. Every day, he would get up in high spirits, look forward to the new things that happened today, and enjoy his work. Those who want to get rich quickly may be disappointed after watching this documentary. Because Buffett did not provide any tips for turning stone into gold. On the contrary, it shows us that success is not only boring, but also a little lonely. In fact, there is no special shortcut to become the world's richest man. Buffett just reached his current height through lifelong focus and lifelong learning. ——Why do we need lifelong learning? Because the scope of utilitarian learning is very narrow and the harvest is very limited, but the return of lifelong learning is immeasurable. Einstein once said that compoundedinterest is the eighth wonder in the world, and those who understand and use it will eventually gain great wealth. Those who do not understand it will pay a heavy price. Buffett is using the power of compound interest. During the 50 years of managing Berkshire Hathaway, he made the annual growth of 21.6% through compound interest, which has now become the asset appreciation of 1826163%. The effect of compound interest can be applied not only to the accumulation of wealth, but also to the accumulation of knowledge. When you persevere in lifelong learning over time, your knowledge will continue to accumulate and grow under the effect of compound interest, and the final harvest and return will be far beyond your imagination. The best way to realize lifelong learning is to read a large number of excellent books. When you read a lot of books, you will feel more deeply that behind a successful and excellent person, there must be a great personality. Most of the time, what we call the solidification and difference of social classes is not only the difference in wealth, but also the difference in everyone's vision and choice. Once you have an excellent personality, you will be more firm in a universal belief: "If you want to get what you want, you have to make yourself worthy of it. Trust, success and admiration all depend on hard work." In front of this belief, all opportunistic shortcuts and the idea of getting something for nothing will fade in your eyes, setting off the brilliance of your personal efforts. This may be the best answer to why we should study and study all our lives.
