Really smart people focus on only three things in life

                                     Let your wealth grow while you sleep

"If you don't find a way to make money while you sleep, you will work until you die," Buffett said.

This may sound painful, but it is very realistic.

Most of us get paid for our daily hustle by selling our time and our physical strength.

Once you stop working, your income stops abruptly.

Passive income is the key to financial freedom.
It is an automatic income that requires little time and effort to look after. Such as rent, dividends, royalties, or automated businesses created via the Internet.

Can really smart people, know how to down-to-earth, through learning investment knowledge, reasonable allocation of assets, slowly accumulate wealth.
They understand that making money make money is the king of wealth growth.

                                          Focus on what you do best

No one is better at "being yourself" than you. 

Everyone has their own unique talents , unfortunately, many people go through life without discovering them. 

Or even if found, because of various reasons, did not go to the deep cultivation, and finally let the talent wasted. 

Look around, how many people blindly follow the trend, what others learn, they follow what they learn.

When  heard programming was hot,  jumped in; when heard that finance makes money, and  immediately changed  profession.

And the result? None of them can be good.

Really smart people will calm down, look at their strengths, and then focus on this, and constantly polish. 

Bring your strengths to the extreme, and you will be able to stand firm in this field. 

Just like Buffett, who focused on value investing for decades, eventually became a legend in the investment world.

                              Walk with great people and achieve yourself

Buffett also said, "Find someone smarter than you and learn from them."

But in reality? Many people like to stay in their comfort zone and hang out with people who are on their level or even below them.

Everyone compliments each other and feels good about themselves. For a long time, just like a frog in warm water, lost the momentum of progress.

With good people, you will find your shortcomings, so as to motivate yourself. Their way of thinking, their way of doing things, can inspire you.

If you want to progress, you have to put down your ego and take the initiative to meet people who are better than you. Learn from their strengths and draw on their experiences. In the process, you will find yourself growing without even realizing it.

There is no shortcut in life, and really smart people know how to cultivate in these three things.
