The Big Idea: The most successful men work 14 hour days, not 4 hour work weeks.
-
Learn to love the grind. — John Calipari
-
In fifty years, you will wish you had the energy to work hard.
-
Life is grind. Hate the grind and you will hate life.
-
If you love the grind, it’s not really work. And you’re not a workaholic.
-
Great men (Gandhi, Schwarzenegger, Bill Gates) don’t outsource their greatest accomplishments.
-
Charlie Munger invested in a company because the partners committed to working 16 hour days if they ever got behind on bills.
-
If long hours scare you, you’re probably doing the wrong work.
-
Don’t be seduced by smooth-talkers who promise wealth without hard work.
-
Trying to work a 4 hour day is like being happy about only having to spend 10 hours a month with the woman you’re about to marry. If that’s the case, you’re marrying the wrong woman.
