John Templeton Quotes - Page 6

• A lot of people talk about life. Some love it. Some disparage it. And a few realize that life can be what you make it because they have learned from past experiences. Lessons learned from these experiences have often contributed greatly toward seeing the possibilities in what some people call "the game of life." When we've "been there" and "done that," we can have as good of an idea of what we don't want as what we do want. Experience is certainly an excellent teacher!

• En mis 45 años de carrera como asesor de inversiones, la humildad me mostró la necesidad de diversificación mundial para reducir el riesgo. Esa carrera me ayudó a ser cada vez más humilde porque las estadísticas mostraban que cuando aconsejaba a un cliente que comprara una acción para sustituir a otra, aproximadamente un tercio de las veces el cliente habría hecho mejor en ignorar mi consejo. En otras actividades, la humildad ante lo poco que sé me ha animado a escuchar con más atención y sabiduría.

• When we desire to be a blessing, we find that there are many ways in which we can bless others. We can give material goods to others, and we can also offer them the benefit of our experience. People who have faced and overcome challenges with alcohol and drugs often involve themselves in helping others who are experiencing similar difficulties. They understand the value of overcoming the problem. In every area of the human experience, we may find those precious ones who are able and willing to be a blessing to others.

• Un cultivador de crisantemos esperaba la visita del emperador, que venía a disfrutar de sus flores, de las que había cientos en flor. El cultivador seleccionó un magnífico espécimen y cortó todos los demás, dejando esta flor perfecta. El emperador llegó y se sentó durante varias horas a contemplar tranquilamente esta hermosa flor, dejándose llevar por su belleza. ¿Se imagina estar tan absorto en la contemplación de una flor que todo lo demás pase a un segundo plano?
