My coach friend Jim Early has reminded me of a Warren Buffetism that is the heart of success in business and life.
Energy and Integrity are Warren’s core requirements with a wink to having a good brain. While good brains are important and some argue that birth is the determining factor in brain power, more and more evidence points to the cell being a machine that turns experience into biology.
I’ve many years as a volunteer working with troubled youth and it’s apparent to me that mental abilities can be built just like muscle mass and coordination (practice and a little more practice).
Integrity and energy are choices and with discipline, practice, and guidance a “C” student can become a superstar in just about any human endeavor.
