Worlds Most Successful Hedge Fund Manager Ray Dalio Cites One Thing as ‘Single Biggest Influence’ on His Life

Julia La Roche writes at Yahoo News:

Billionaire Ray Dalio, the founder of $160 billion hedge-fund behemoth Bridgewater Associates, says that Transcendental Meditation has been “the single biggest influence” on his life.

 Dalio,  66, is considered the most successful hedge fund manager of all time. He’s been practicing Transcendental Mediation for more than 40 years.

“When I look back at my life, I am happy to have had what most people would consider a successful life, not only in terms of business, but in my relationships and in lots of ways.  More than anything else, I attribute it to meditation—partially because of the creativity, partly because of the centeredness.  TM has given me an ability to put things in perspective, which has helped a lot.  I think meditation has been the single biggest influence on my life.”

Dalio is featured in a new book called “Super Mind: How to Boost Performance and Live a Richer and Happier Life.”
