“Like the saying goes, don’t believe everything you read.”

Don’t worry about looking good – worry about achieving your goals.

An economy is not a complicated thing; it just has a lot of moving parts.

Competitiveness is really what it costs you per man-hour to get you what you want. In other words, there’s an education level that plays into the mix and so if it’s inexpensive to buy an hour of real good education in places like China versus the U.S., that factors in.

If inflation-adjusted interest rates decline in a given country, its currency is likely to decline.

I can be stressed, or tired, and I can go into a meditation and it all just flows off of me. I’ll come out of it refreshed and centered and that’s how I’ll feel and it’ll carry through the day.

I believe that the biggest problem that humanity faces is an ego sensitivity to finding out whether one is right or wrong and identifying what one’s strengths and weaknesses are.

When two intelligent parties disagree, that’s when the potential for learning and moving ahead begins.

I believe that dreamers who simply imagine things that would be nice but are not possible don’t sufficiently appreciate the laws of the universe to understand the true implications of their desires, much less how to achieve them.

Radical transparency fosters goodness in so many ways for the same reasons that bad things are more likely to take place behind closed doors.

The big question is: When will the term structure of interest rates change? That’s the question to be worried about.

Demand is best measured in terms of spending. You know, I think in traditional economics, it’s a mistake to measure it in terms of the quantity of goods.

Look at what caused people to make a lot of money and you will see that usually it is in proportion to their production of what the society wanted.

People who worry about looking good typically hide what they don’t know and hide their weaknesses, so they never learn how to properly deal with them and these weaknesses remain impediments in the future.

Remember that experience creates internalization. Doing things repeatedly leads to internalization, which produces a quality of understanding that is generally vastly superior to intellectualized learning.

Forget about what the technology is. Just understand the motivation behind it.

The more you think you know, the more closed-minded you’ll be.
