Lesson We Learned From Warren Buffett, College Guide 

They say that if you want to be successful,  you have to talk to people who have already achieved a lot of things in their lives. You can get wisdom from them because they have already experienced successes and failures.  

In this post, we are going to share with you the best lessons that you can embrace from Warren Buffett.  Consider doing these right now even if you are still studying in college. And when you already formed the habit, you would soon realize that you are one step closer to your goal.  

Never Stop Investing In Yourself  

If there is one thing that you have to do right now, it’s to invest in yourself. If you must know, when Warren Buffett was younger, he would take workshops or training for public speaking to close deals or investments. 

You should take that path as well. You need to broaden your knowledge and don’t confine yourself to what you could learn from your classroom. There are so many online classes and workshops that you can attend to. So there’s no excuse for not being street smart. It is up to you if you want to improve. And so we say, invest in these as early as now.  

Learn To Be Frugal  

There are many people who are guilty of living beyond their means. You can blame peer pressure or social media for giving us an idea of what a perfect life is. But if you will follow Waren Buffett, he lives frugally even if he earns a massive amount of money. 

Truth be told, you can live simply. You can enjoy good food even if it’s not too expensive. You can survive with gadgets that will not break the bank. You just have to be practical and make smarter decisions. After all, these material things will be gone and obsolete in a few years’ time. You have to ask yourself if it’s worth your money.  

Social media can make us want more. Just to be clear, wanting something better is fine. But if you are drowning in debt just because you bought a brand new car or a brand new phone, that’s a different story. So we suggest that you limit your time on social media and just focus on what you need and what you have.  

Build A Good Reputation And Take Care Of It  

Most of us today are too impulsive and we don’t think of the repercussions of our actions in the future.  

While it’s good to have fun when you’re in college, you also have to think about its long-term effects. If you are partying all night, what do you think will your potential business partners think of you?  

However, if you are responsible and you can manage your time being a student and being someone who could have fun, then they would be engaged to work with you. 

When you are in college, it’s the first step of being an adult and you have to make good choices. It’s not just about fun and not thinking about tomorrow. It’s about establishing what could be a bright future.  

And since we’re talking about reputation, it’s also fitting to discuss what a website could do for you you. We understand that you know how to create your resume or your cover letter. But to put your game up there, you must create your own website. 

This is not hard to do, and it’s not even expensive. There are free platforms to choose from, and you can just add your projects and case studies. When the time comes that you have to apply for a job, you can include the link in your resume, and you already have an unfair advantage.  

Choose The People To Work With  

It’s also important that you choose the people whom you’re going to work with. Apart from the skills, what is important is their character. They must be genuine and honest. Otherwise, it could be the cause of your downfall.  

Be Happy  

Last but not the least, you have to find your happiness.  

Yes, money could buy a lot of things. But if you are not doing what you love, then what’s the point of having a huge amount in your bank? Always have a balanced life, and try to see what would push you to wake up every day. And of course, go back to your motivation.
