There have been and are many billionaires and successful businessmen, but there is only one Warren Buffet. He is known for his junk food diet and his charming wit and gives all the credit for his success to his communication skill.
Public speaking was not always his forte but Warren Buffet took it up as a challenge and attended public speaking courses to hone the skill.
After that, there was no looking back. He not only won hearts with his business presentations but also the hand of the love of his life.
Strong communication skill is one of the major deal breakers in business and in life. But what are the other things that helped Mr Buffet become one of the most distinguished & sought after thought leaders of all time?
When they say your friends define you, they are right! Following the right people, especially those who have accomplished more than you. You can soak in their wisdom and keep their work as a benchmark for yourself. They’ll keep you inspired!
Pinpoint your competence. Mr Buffet realised his strength lies in evaluating businesses and that is how he became the world’s richest man. Find out the one thing you are good at and excel at that. Don’t end up becoming A Jack Of All And A Master Of None!
Embrace your setbacks and take them in your stride.
Warren Buffet got rejected at Harvard. He was disappointed no doubt but got selected by Columbia where a professor who he was really fond of, taught him.
Your setbacks should never weigh you down, in fact, think of them as lessons and you will grow stronger & more confident.
And finally, health is wealth! Warren Buffet is 87 years old. But 87 remains a mere number. The third richest man in the world is hail & hearty, mentally & physically, and continues to be one of the world’s most successful businessmen. Buffet urges you to think of your body as your one and only car. Both your mind & body are important and need constant care & attention so that nothing stops you from touching the sky!
