Principles

Current Revision: August 2, 2026

These principles are the result of many years of living, experimenting, writing, and reflecting. Through my own life and by learning from others, I've found that the shortest principles are often the easiest to remember and put into practice. This collection represents some of the best principles I've come up with so far.

They are still a work in progress. I hope they continue to evolve as I learn, grow, and discover better ways of living. I'd rather change my mind than hold onto an idea simply because I wrote it down. My goal isn't to create rigid rules, but to continually refine a principled way of living.

Many of these principles were developed and refined over several years, especially during my annual Think Weeks.
