Great article that really got me moving.

Here is a matching quote from Warren Buffett regarding your first point:

The stock market is a no-called-strike game. You don’t have to swing at everything–you can wait for your pitch. The problem when you’re a money manager is that your fans keep yelling, ‘Swing, you bum!’ (1999 Berkshire Hathaway Annual Meeting)

This also perfectly leads over to your #2: Your Inner Scorecard.

Hi Derek, thanks for sharing the lessons from Warren Buffett. The most thing I like from Warren is simplicity. He has been one of the wealthiest people in the world, but his principles on life and business are very simple, for example : he have never used his own jet-plane, even though he have the biggest jet company in the world.

Warren Buffett is awe-inspiring. I guess I have the same problem as @ratracetrap. But I am not going to make a fool of myself by living in constant fear. I know entrepreneurship isn’t so easy. The only thing that bothers me is time. Leading a balanced life is what makes the entire process complicated.

@Naomi – I try to live my life by that quote. With almost everything I do…

@Chad I totally agree. That is also one of the main benefits of the Kaizen system. Its all about continuous improvement.

@Derek- Focusing on improving yourself is one of the most productive things you can do to make measurable changes in your life.

When you’re in first place it’s often easy to forget that everyone behind you is hustling hard to take your spot. The only way to stay on top of your game is to take the approach of constant learning and improvement.
