Making my principles public

Optimize for freedom. (Sam Zell) Those that live well below their means, understand a freedom that lifestyle upgraders can not fathom. (The greater the freedom, the greater the need to exercise discipline. Andy Grove)

Find enjoyment in solving problems. Life and business is just a succession of problems one must solve. Learn to enjoy them.

Be kind. Kindness creates serendipitous outcomes for giver and receiver. 

Have high integrity and associate with those with high integrity. Self esteem is the reputation you have with yourself. (Naval)

Have self belief. Self belief is a prerequisite for achievement. Pressure is privilege. (Kobe)

Be enthusiastic. The outcome of things is often proportional to our enthusiasm. 

Optimists have more joy.

Have gratitude to be playing the game.

Relentlessly prune bullshit.  There are many things that are just not necessary. Identify them and remove them from your life. (Paul Graham)

Do not compare yourselves with others. Envy is the worst of all sins. (Charlie Munger)

In relationships at work, home or with friends, use empathetic candor.

Success is never final. Success must be earned over and over again. (Winston Churchill) Don't be complacent. The height of success coincides with the highest risk of complacency.

Seek serendipity. Serendipity and chance are required for extraordinary outcomes.

Be a good listener. Make it a habit.

Action over talk.
