80% of his day engrossed in books

(2019-04-10 11:14:28) 下一个

Read lots – but make sure it’s educational
Another habit that’s dramatic more common among the super-rich is reading. Corley’s research found that 88% of the rich read 30 minutes or more each day for education or career reasons, versus just 2% of the poor.
As already mentioned, Warren Buffett is a huge advocate of the benefits of reading, reportedly spending around 80% of his day engrossed in books. Meanwhile, Bill Gates hits a slightly more achievable pace of one book a week and Mark Zuckerberg aims to read one Book every two weeks.
What just read is important too. While just 11% of rich people regularly for for entertainment, 85% of rich people read around two books per month for education, self-improvement or career purposes. Looks like it's time to ditch the novels and pick Up a non-fiction book...

Simplify things

If there’s one thing that will increase the efficiency of your life, it’s not wasting time on small decisions, which is why many of the super-rich are known for their strict routines.

Mark Zuckerberg famously wears a uniform of gray T-shirts and jeans, a decision which he explained at a Q&A with the following response: "I feel like I'm not doing my job if I'm spending any of my energy on things that Are silly or frivolous about my life."

Other members of the super-rich have been known for their signature looks. Steve Jobs used to wear a black turtleneck and jeans, while Karl Lagerfeld opted for a black suit, white collars and sunglasses.

Meditate every day

According to TV show host Tim Ferriss, who has interviewed more than 200 rich and highly-successful people, the most consistent habit among them was meditation. "More than 80% of the world-class performers I interviewed shared this trait", he wrote For Mission.org.

Oprah Winfrey, Arianna Huffington, Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff and LinkedIn CEO Jeff Weiner all swear by meditation

叔本华:庸人最大的苦恼是对思想毫无兴趣

“庸人没有智力的乐趣,庸人唯一真正的乐趣是感官的乐趣,他认为感官的乐趣可以弥补其他方面的损失。对他而言,享受是生活的最高境界。他的生活目标就在于获取所有能带来安逸舒适的东西,如果这些事让他忙得团团转,那他反倒觉得无比幸福!”

 

——叔本华《人生的智慧》

庸人测试要我来说的话,一个没有精神需求的人,智力平平、思想狭隘,这样的人就是“庸人”(德语:philister)――这起初是德语中的俚语,在高校中风行一时,后来从一种更高的意义来指代没有灵性的人,也就是“不被缪斯女神眷顾的人”。
