Life Principles

Here are some of the principles I try apply to every area of my life:

• Let your ideas see the light of day
• Always be willing to accept feedback and criticism (even when it is poorly delivered)
• Rome ne s’est pas faite en un jour (Rome wasn’t built in a day)
• Don’t be too proud to follow a good example
• Loose ends always unravel
• Unanswered questions never go away
• The Tisroc won’t live forever whether you want him to or not
• Talk less; listen more
• Use more semi-colons
• Use oxford commas
• Learn how to politely say “No”
• Don’t let the possibility of failure scare you away from starting something
• To do something, you have to do something
• A whiteboard is worth a thousand laptops
• Ideas have consequences
