Five principles.
One operating system.
Production over Hype.
The work goes first. The brand compounds on top of something real.
Environment over Tools.
The room shapes the operator. The tools come second.
Discipline over Motivation.
Build the business on the days the feeling is not there.
Ownership over Excuses.
The conditions are real. The response still belongs to you.
Proximity over Information.
Information teaches what. Proximity teaches how.
