内容简介

From composer, musician, and philanthropist Peter Buffett comes a warm, wise, and inspirational book that asks, Which will you choose: the path of least resistance or the path of potentially greatest satisfaction?

You may think that with a last name like his, Buffett has enjoyed a life of endless privilege. But the son of billionaire investor Warren Buffett says that the only real inheritance handed down from his parents was a philosophy: Forge your own path in life. It is a creed that has allowed him to follow his own passions, establish his own identity, and reap his own successes.

In Life Is What You Make It, Buffett expounds on the strong set of values given to him by his trusting and broadminded mother, his industrious and talented father, and the many life teachers he has met along the way.

Today’s society, Buffett posits, has begun to replace a work ethic, relishing what you do, with a wealth ethic, honoring the payoff instead of the process. We confuse privilege with material accumulation, character with external validation. Yet, by focusing more on substance and less on reward, we can open doors of opportunity and strive toward a greater sense of fulfillment. In clear and concise terms, Buffett reveals a great truth: Life is random, neither fair nor unfair.

From there it becomes easy to recognize the equal dignity and value of every human life—our circumstances may vary but our essences do not. We see that our journey in life rarely follows a straight line but is often met with false starts, crises, and blunders. How we push through and persevere in these challenging moments is where we begin to create the life of our dreams—from discovering our vocations to living out our bliss to giving back to others.

Personal and revealing, instructive and intuitive, Life Is What You Make It is about transcending your circumstances, taking up the reins of your destiny, and living your life to the fullest.

精彩书评

“Peter Buffett has given us a wise and inspiring book that should be required reading for every young person seeking to find his or her place in the world, and for every family hoping to give its daughters and sons the best possible start in life.”
--President Bill Clinton

"Knowing and admiring Peter as we do, LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT captures his spirit, passion, and values beautifully. As parents, it’s the kind of dialogue about our life’s purpose and opportunity we’re having with our children. We will have everyone in our family read and discuss LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT ."
--Bill & Melinda Gates

"With home-spun, heart-felt wisdom, Peter Buffett ponders how to make a meaningful life, while making a living. LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT is thought-provoking, worthwhile reading."
--Ted Turner

"LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT is the ultimate book of commonsense -- except it isn't common. Because Peter Buffett could have had a derived identity and chose not to, he has power and credibility when he tells us how to find a unique self by doing what we love. I can't imagine anyone who wouldn't benefit from this spirited, wise, and friendly book."
--Gloria Steinem

"In his searching book, LIFE IS WHAT YOU MAKE IT, Peter Buffett challenges us all to balance ambition and service, personal goals and work for the common good. It is a book of value and honesty."

非常好的一本书，京东配送也不错!读书是一种提升自我的艺术。“玉不琢不成器，人不学不知道。”读书是一种学习的过程。一本书有一个故事，一个故事叙述一段人生，一段人生折射一个世界。“读万卷书，行万里路”说的正是这个道理。读诗使人高雅，读史使人明智。读每一本书都会有不同的收获。“悬梁刺股”、“萤窗映雪”，自古以来，勤奋读书，提升自我是每一个人的毕生追求。读书是一种最优雅的素质，能塑造人的精神，升华人的思想。 　　读书是一种充实人生的艺术。没有书的人生就像空心的竹子一样，空洞无物。书本是人生最大的财富。犹太人让孩子们亲吻涂有蜂蜜的书本，是为了让他们记住：书本是甜的，要让甜蜜充满人生就要读书。读书是一本人生最难得的存折，一点一滴地积累，你会发现自己是世界上最富有的人。 　 读书是一种感悟人生的艺术。读杜甫的诗使人感悟人生的辛酸，读李白的诗使人领悟官场的腐败，读鲁迅的文章使人认清社会的黑暗，读巴金的文章使人感到未来的希望。每一本书都是一个朋友，教会我们如何去看待人生。读书是人生的一门最不缺少的功课，阅读书籍，感悟人生，助我们走好人生的每一步。 　 书是灯，读书照亮了前面的路；书是桥，读书接通了彼此的岸；书是帆，读书推动了人生的船。读书是一门人生的艺术，因为读书，人生才更精彩！ 读书，是好事；读大量的书，更值得称赞。 读书是一种享受生活的艺术。五柳先生“好读书，不求甚解，每有会意，便欣然忘食”。当你枯燥烦闷，读书能使你心情愉悦；当你迷茫惆怅时，读书能平静你的 心，让你看清前路；当你心情愉快时，读书能让你发现身边更多美好的事物，让你更加享受生活。读书是一种最美丽的享受。“书中自有黄金屋，书中自有颜如 玉。” 　 一位叫亚克敦的英国人，他的书斋里杂乱的堆满了各科各类的图书，而且每本书上都有着手迹。读到这里是不是有一种敬佩之意油然而升。因为“有了书，就象鸟儿有了翅膀”吗！ 　 然而，我们很容易忽略的是：有好书并不一定能读好书。正如这位亚克敦，虽然他零零碎碎地记住了不少知识，可当人家问他时，他总是七拉八扯说不清楚。这里的原因只有一个，那就是他不善长于读书，而只会“依葫芦画瓢”。 朱熹说过：“读书之法，在循序渐进，熟读而精思。” 　 所谓“循序渐进”，就是学习、工作等按照一定的步骤诼渐深入或提高。也就是说我们并不要求书有几千甚至几万，根本的目的在于对自己的书要层层深入，点点掌握，关键还在于把握自己的读书速度。至于“熟读”，顾名思义，就是要把自己看过的书在看，在看，看的滚瓜烂熟，，能活学活用。而“精思”则是“循序渐进”，“熟读”的必然结果，也必然是读书的要决。有了细致、精练的思索才能更高一层的理解书所要讲的道理总体还是不错的，物流也很给力，商品也是不错的，给个好评
