Charlie Munger once said, “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.”
He also often quotes the words of Epicurus, “Let no one be slow to seek wisdom when he is young nor weary in the search of it when he has grown old. For no age is too early or too late for the health of the soul and mind.”
I regularly read and have subscribed to many authors and blog writers on a varied set of topics. This not only keeps me updated but also provides a range of perspectives on different topics. My mailbox is full of such articles and I keep on shifting these mails / articles to my ‘To be read’ box and try to empty the same during my frequent travels or as a part of my early morning reading ritual.
Sharing the 24 best articles I read in 2024. Do read them and also share your favourite articles you read for our learning enhancement.
Keep Reading, Keep learning and stay blessed forever.
