The quote under is from an interview Stanley Kubrick gave to Playboy Journal in 1968; as with all issues involving decision-making, it’s immediately relevant to buying and selling.
“Amongst an ideal many different issues that chess teaches you is to manage the preliminary pleasure you are feeling if you see one thing that appears good. It trains you to suppose earlier than grabbing, and to suppose simply as objectively if you’re in hassle. While you’re making a movie it’s important to make most of your choices on the run, and there’s a tendency to at all times shoot from the hip. It takes extra self-discipline than you may think to suppose, even for thirty seconds, within the noisy, complicated, high-pressure environment of a movie set. However a number of seconds’ thought can usually stop a severe mistake being made about one thing that appears good at first look. With respect to movies, chess is extra helpful stopping you from making errors than providing you with concepts. Concepts come spontaneously and the self-discipline required to guage and put them to make use of tends to be the true work.”
