More quotes by Ray Dalio
I think it is in the nature of individuals and individual entities not to self-correct.
Ray Dalio
The world is still in deleveraging.
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
School typically doesn't prepare young people for real life - unless their lives are spent following instructions and pleasing others. In my opinion, that's why so many students who succeed in school fail in life.
Ray Dalio
I think the President of the United States must operate by rules. I think our judicial system must operate by the rules. You have to operate by the rules of the system, and if you don't, if you pull rank, then you lose all your credibility.
Ray Dalio
It is a law of nature that you must do difficult things to gain strength and power. As with working out, after a while you make the connection between doing difficult things and the benefits you get from doing them, and you come to look forward to doing these difficult things.
Ray Dalio
Life is like a giant smorgasbord of more delicious alternatives than you can ever hope to taste. So you have to reject having some things you want in order to get other things you want more.
Ray Dalio
Look at what caused people to make a lot of money and you will see that usually it is in proportion to their production of what the society wanted.
Ray Dalio
People with good work habits have to-do lists that are reasonably prioritized, and they make themselves do what needs to be done. By contrast, people with poor work habits almost randomly react to the stuff that comes at them, or they can't bring themselves to do the things they need to do but don't like to do (or are unable to do).
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.
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
A beautiful deleveraging balances the three options. In other words, there is a certain amount of austerity, there is a certain amount of debt restructuring, and there is a certain amount of printing of money. When done in the right mix, it isn't dramatic.
Ray Dalio
When you're centered, your emotions are not hijacking you.
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
Since the only way you are going to find solutions to painful problems is by thinking deeply about them - i.e., reflecting - if you can develop a knee-jerk reaction to pain that is to reflect rather than to fight or flee, it will lead to your rapid learning/evolving.
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
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
Know what your people are like, and make sure they do their jobs excellently.
Ray Dalio
An economy is not a complicated thing it just has a lot of moving parts.
Ray Dalio
There are two main drivers of asset class returns - inflation and growth.
