Peter Bevelin's study on attaining wisdom led to the creation of Seeking Wisdom. His search for this knowledge was partly inspired by his own mistakes as well as observing other’s mistakes. A big portion of the inspiration for this book is centered around the philosophy of Warren Buffet and of super-investor and Berkshire Hathaway Vice Chairman CharlesMunger. In addition to these two, Bevelin cites a wide range of thinkers such as Mark Twain, 16th Century French essayist Michel de Montaigne, Albert Einstein, Richard Feynman, and many more.

What do we want out of life? What interferes with our goals?
