# A Concise List of Personal Values
|
||
|
||
This is a concise list of my personal values. I iterate on them, from time to time.
|
||
|
||
- Trust and verify.<label for="sn-trust" class="margin-toggle sidenote-number"></label>
|
||
<input type="checkbox" id="sn-trust" class="margin-toggle"/>
|
||
<span class="sidenote">Adapted from Reagan's approach to nuclear treaties, this applies to code reviews, relationships, and any system where verification protects trust.</span>
|
||
- As above, so below.<label for="sn-hermetic" class="margin-toggle sidenote-number"></label>
|
||
<input type="checkbox" id="sn-hermetic" class="margin-toggle"/>
|
||
<span class="sidenote">The Hermetic principle suggesting patterns repeat at different scales—from code architecture to cosmic structures, from personal healing to societal change.</span>
|
||
- Creativity is crafted from strife.
|
||
- Full, 180° turns are encouraged.
|
||
- Communicate intent, always. Never stop.
|
||
- Life is not a race, but there's no speed limit either.
|
||
- Watch yourself closely and learn from your mistakes.
|
||
- Reality exists, regardless of your emotional support of it.
|
||
- There's a big difference between judgement and discernment.
|
||
- Organize for peacefulness, love others, and craft meaningfulness — always.
|
||
- Negative atmospheres are toxic. Remove yourself from them.
|
||
- All things in the Universe are self–referential in Nature.
|
||
- Drink copious amounts of water—every day.
|
||
- Often, the best way to learn is to teach.
|
||
- Everything is an expression of its opposite.
|
||
- Please be cordial, or please be on your way.
|
||
- Everything's going to be okay.
|
||
- Be gentle with yourself.
|
||
- Inspire. Stay inspired.
