01. What are Principles?

Your values are what you consider important and Principles are the invisible threads that bind them together and allow you to live a life in line with your values. Principles connect your values with your actions and help you live in connection with the laws of reality. Without them, you would simply react to circumstances without considering what is "worthwhile" to you. Principles are a guide for individuals, but also for groups of people who would otherwise fight without reason and without any understanding of why.

The author thoroughly describes the Principles in his guide to inspire readers to create their own personal list. It is a true management Bible that should be consulted often.

In this book, he describes the Principles that you can use in your daily life (LIFE PRINCIPLES), in your work environment (WORK PRINCIPLES) and to build and improve your "perfect machine" (PRINCIPLES that create and evolve your structure).
