Some principles I want to live by:

  • Be earnest. Do things for the love of things, not for the prestige or to say “I’ve done it.”
  • Be a good person at heart. Be generous, be helpful, be humble. I have broken this rule many times, but I try to keep on it.
  • Be optimistic! In the future, in people, in the world.
  • Build things that matter. Fund things that matter. Do things that matter.
  • Be able to surround myself with good people.
  • Never stop learning.
  • Always be high integrity, even when it costs you. The shortcuts aren’t worth it.
  • Always form first principled opinions on things, and then find the strongest critique of those opinions.
