The Essays of Warren Buffett by Lawrence CunninghamFor over 50 years, Warren Buffett has written an annual letter to Berkshire Hathaway's shareholders. Many people set it as a goal to read all of Warren’s shareholder letters chronologically. Which is certainly a fascinating way to see how Berkshire Hathaway evolved year after year.This book is different. It breaks from this chronological order to instead group things Warren has said over the years by topic. So, for instance, you can see his ideas on the importance of culture or the power of incentives holistically — as a single body of work.What I love about this book is the focus on Warren’s ideas. Warren Buffett has built one of the largest conglomerates in history — full of incredible companies from See’s Candies to GEICO — from a standing start in 1965. I would argue that if you only have time to study one entrepreneur and investor, that you should study Warren Buffett.There’s no better way to do that than with this book. I know it’s one I’ll be re-reading for the rest of my life.Explore the episode notes.Search and down a transcript and find links to related books, interviews, lectures, and more: outlieracademy.com/166.Listen to Part 1.https://www.outlieracademy.com/episode/165Watch and listen.Watch this episode on YouTubeFind this episode in your favorite podcast appGet new episodes delivered via emailRead the full book summary.The Essays of Warren Buffett: Warren's Ideas from 50+ Years Grouped by TopicFor more, explore my full profile on Warren Buffett.Who is Warren Buffett?

The Playing Field by Graham Duncan is BY FAR the best piece of writing I've read on the journey we must all make to reach mastery in our fields. While Graham writes about the journey to master the art of investing, everything in it is broadly generalizable.In Graham’s view we must all progress from apprentice, to professional, to self-actualization, operating at scale with impact, and eventually (if we make it) mentoring the new generation. It’s a wonderful meditation on mastery — what it is, what it looks like, and most importantly the journey to get there.Watch and listenWatch this episode on YouTubeFind this episode in your favorite podcast appGet new episodes delivered via emailRead the full essayThe Playing Field by Graham DuncanBrought to you by HVMN.
