The Smartest Man In

The World

Charlie Munger

So far in life, the closest person I have ever found to have most of the

answers is Charlie Munger.

He is the billionaire business partner of Warren Buffett. But more

importantly, many people like Bill Gates and Warren Buffett say

Charlie is the smartest person they know!

One of the most important books in my library, "Poor Charlie's

Almanack: The Wit and Wisdom of Charles T. Munger"

This is an amazing book filled with wisdom! Let's start with my favorite

quote...

"Wisdom acquisition is a moral duty. It’s not something you do just to

advance in life. As a corollary to that proposition, which is very

important, it means that you are hooked for lifetime learning. And

without lifetime learning, you people are not going to do very well. You

are not going to get very far in life based on what you already know.

You’re going to advance in life by what you learn after you leave here.

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...

...So if civilization can progress only with an advanced method of

invention, you can progress only when you learn the method of learning."

It should come as no surprise that "the smartest man in the world"

values learning above all else.

The one thing that stands out to me in this quote is how he emphasizes

lifelong learning and the importance of "learning the method of

learning."

What he's referring to is that most people will never achieve their true

potential because they never really learned how to learn.

These are the people, floating from topic to topic, being exposed to

tons of information but never really learning anything. Such a common

problem in today's fast paced world!

So... how do you learn to learn so you can be a lifelong learner?

My philosophy is to surround yourself with mentors who are smarter

then you are. The people who help you feel empowered, who motivate

you to succeed and the people who inspire greatness in you!

The hardest part about this is...

Most people don't have very many, if any motivating and inspiring

people around them. Which...

Can leave you feeling like there is no hope and make you ready to give

up on finding and living your own "Good Life." However...

I urge you to think about how lucky you are to live in the information

age. Where you can get direct access to people who are smarter then

you are. People who motivate and inspire you to take action and

become the person you know you should be!

Like I said in the beginning of the first email I sent you, I'm grateful that

you gave me the opportunity to be your mentor. Today's big lesson is...

Surround yourself with people who are smarter than you!
