More quotes by Ray Dalio
Almost everything is like a machine.
Ray Dalio
Nature gave us pain as a messaging device to tell us that we are approaching, or that we have exceeded, our limits in some way.
Ray Dalio
If you have the power to see things through somebody else's eyes, it's like going from black and white to color or two dimensions to three dimensions.
Ray Dalio
I do think people need to recognize that a lot of journalists want to write a story a certain way because the story will be better or the portrayal will be better, or at least recognize that whenever you're looking at something, you're seeing it through somebody's eyes who may actually not be the person who is the most insightful.
Ray Dalio
If you can stare hard at your problems, they almost always shrink or disappear, because you almost always find a better way of dealing with them than if you don't face them head on. The more difficult the problem, the more important it is that you stare at it and deal with it.
Ray Dalio
The big question is: When will the term structure of interest rates change? That's the question to be worried about.
Ray Dalio
Don't worry about looking good - worry about achieving your goals.
Ray Dalio
I think the greatest tragedy of mankind is that people have ideas and opinions in their heads but don't have a process for properly examining these ideas to find out what's true. That creates a world of distortions.
Ray Dalio
Principles are what allow you to live a life consistent with those values. Principles connect your values to your actions.
Ray Dalio
He who lives by the crystal ball will eat shattered glass.
Ray Dalio
Some people who are creative are not reliable and vice versa some see big pictures while others see details, etc. All of them are important to have on well-orchestrated teams.
Ray Dalio
As Harvard developmental psychologist Robert Kegan, who has studied Bridgewater, says, in most work places everyone is working two jobs. The first is whatever their actual job is the second consists of managing others' impressions of them, especially by hiding weaknesses and inadequacies - which is an enormous waste of energy.
Ray Dalio
You'll see that excuses like That's not easy are of no value and that it pays to push through it at a pace you can handle. Like getting physically fit, the most important thing is that you keep moving forward at whatever pace you choose, recognizing the consequences of your actions.
Ray Dalio
One of the greatest sources of problems in our society arises from people having loads of wrong theories in their heads - often theories that are critical of others - that they won't test by speaking to the relevant people about them. Instead, they talk behind people's backs, which leads to pervasive misinformation.
Ray Dalio
I believe that one of the best ways of getting at truth is reflecting with others who have opposing views and who share your interest in finding the truth rather than being proven right
Ray Dalio
I have found that by looking at what is rewarded and punished, and why, universally - i.e., in nature as well as in humanity - I have been able to learn more about what is good and bad than by listening to most people's views about good and bad.
Ray Dalio
The world is still in deleveraging.
Ray Dalio
I'd like to be clear that a number of people find me intolerable, and they don't hesitate to say so - which they and I cherish.
Ray Dalio
People who acquire things beyond their usefulness not only will derive little or no marginal gains from these acquisitions, but they also will experience negative consequences, as with any form of gluttony.
Ray Dalio
I treasure the fact there's media freedom, but with that goes responsibility. I think that there should be a self-regulatory organization and that they should start to think about standards. Because I think a lot of people say, I don't know how to read what is true versus somebody else's interpretation.
