Ray Dalio

It gives one an ability almost to go above everything and look down on it and say, okay, here's how things work.

And an acceptance of reality.

It's like this serenity prayer.

God, give me the serenity to accept that which I can't control.

Give me the power to control that which I can.

and give me the wisdom to tell the difference.

And, you know, just to be able to approach things in an open-minded way, like we talk about, you asked the question about disagreement.

How can I approach disagreement?

Do I emotionally get into a fight about it, or do I handle it well?

Meditation and those types of things, calming yourself down, viewing everything more like it's, you know, think of a reality as being like a game, like a chess game.

Okay, calmly.

Okay, this thing happens, and what's your next move?

And how does it work?

That's what I want to try to give to people, okay?

That's why I have the animated video on YouTube.

That's why I have the book.

Because it's like watching the same movie happen over and over again.

You can see it.

And you understand the cause-effect relations.

So you can understand.
