Finally finished "Becoming Warren Buffett" on the to-see list.

The most impressive points:

1. FOCUS—Focus, Buffett considers the most important trait. The old man is really strong. He has devoted his whole life to the career he loves. He said that for forty or fifty years, every day he went to work, he was so happy that he wanted to dance. Reflecting on myself, this is not the mentality at all. Where is my focus?

2. "The chains of habit are too light to be felt until they're too heavy to be broken."

This sentence really pokes me, and it hurts. A lot of my supposed interests, am I really interested?

3. The old man said that he spent a lot of time reading. I'm very ashamed, since graduating, I haven't calmed down and studied hard for a long time. Start today and rediscover the joy of reading.
