Be a Learning Machine

I constantly see people rise in life who are not the smartest, sometimes not even the most diligent, but they are learning machines. They go to bed every night a little wiser than they were when they got up, and boy, does that help, particularly when you have a long run ahead of you.

– Charlie Munger

While learning, keep in mind the following:

• Define your circle of competence (Warren Buffett & Charlie Munger: "Know the boundaries of what you truly understand.")
• Have a multi-disciplinary approach (Charlie Munger: "Develop a latticework of mental models from various disciplines to make better decisions.")
• Use evidence-based decision-making (Richard Feynman: "The first principle is that you must not fool yourself—and you are the easiest person to fool.")
• Be a continuous learning machine (Charlie Munger: "Go to bed smarter than when you woke up.")
