What do you no?

March 31, 2008 by diehappy Leave a Comment

William Ury wrote a wonderful book on The Power of a Positive No. He was talking with Warren Buffett the successful investor. Buffet said,

…the secret to creating his fortune lay in his ability to say No. “I sit there all day and look at investment proposals. I say No, No, No, No, No, No — until I see one that is exactly what I am looking for. And then I say Yes. All I have to do is say Yes a few times in my life and I’ve made my fortune.” Every important yes requires a thousand  Nos.
