38、e had circled were on List A and the 20 items he had not circled were on List B. Flint said that he would start working on his top 5 goals right away. And then Buffett asked him about the second list, “And what about the ones you didnt circle?”Flint replied, “Well, the top 5 are my primary focus (焦点
39、), but the other 20 come in a close second. I still plan to give them my efforts.”Buffett said, “No. Youve got it wrong. Everything you didnt circle just became your Avoid-At-All-Cost list.
