5 success tips for young Indians from Warren Buffett’s early years

Have you ever seen a building come up from scratch. I did see one come up from my window in the last 2 years. For almost over a year of it, all I saw was a huge crater being dug. It just kept growing. I was fed up of the noise throughout the day, but they just would not stop. And then one day, the digging just stopped, and in the next few months I saw the huge crater being filled and a 25-story building come up there. It took more time for the crater than the entire building.

Because the foundation is the most important. Whether it is life, family, money, business or anything else. And that’s what the Oracle of Omaha, Warren Buffett knew since he was a kid delivering papers in the morning.

Before he turned 30, Warren Buffett had built a solid foundation for the life to come. It was simple, comforting, and packed with wisdom. Here are five things he achieved or learned before 30, that will inspire you to build a life you love, with relationships that shine.

1. Look For Your Calling Early

By his 20s, Buffett was all in on numbers, reading business reports like they were adventure novels. At 11, he bought his first shares; by 30, he was running his own ventures. He wasn’t after quick wins; he found what kept the fire within him burning. “The most important investment you can make is in yourself,” he says. In India, where most young people are often nudged toward “safe” careers like engineering or government jobs, finding your passion is like finding a best friend, it decides how interesting your life could be.

Learning from Buffett, young Indians must always remember this… BE CURIOUS! Start small but be curious. If you’re a student, try new hobbies! Maybe writing poems or try fixing a gadget or may be try to get ahead with AI… Anything to find what clicks. If you’re a parent, think about what makes you smile, like gardening, storytelling, or shopping, and carve out time for it. “Never give up searching for the job that you’re passionate about,” Buffett advises.
