Knowing your nature is critically important to understanding what success is for you. I can't tell you literally what is best for you, but I can tell you that success is not having a lot more money or status than you need. Having the time and freedom to do what you most want to do is far more important. What is success for most people? It is a matter of having meaningful work and meaningful relationships. If you can make your work and your passion one and the same, and do it with people who you care about and care about you, you will have a happy, successful life.

Memorial Day leads me to 1) have a great time with family and friends, barbecuing, and listening to good music, 2) reflect on wars in general and those who lost their lives to protect us and our system, and 3) reflect on our country's principles. I am deeply grateful to those who lost their lives or were harmed in the service of protecting our ability to live in our unique way that is a function of our unique principles. I try to remind myself what those principles are that we have fought and are fighting for—democracy, free speech, equal opportunity, being the land of the free and home of the brave, etc. That leads me to wonder whether (and doubt that) most Americans could now agree on the principles that bind them and are worth fighting and dying for. Frankly, I am having a tough time reconciling what is now happening with what I grew up learning mattered most and what brought about true American exceptionalism—values that included equal opportunity, rule of law, freedom of speech, diversity of thinking, democracy, openness to good immigration, etc. I really think that we could use a clarification of—perhaps even a referendum about—what our principles are and then what KPIs and surveys can show how we're doing living up to them. Memorial Day also leads me to reflect on the wars that have occurred repeatedly throughout history in all countries at a scale that, thankfully, few of us living have experienced. While, thanks to the heroic efforts of those who protect us, these major conflicts haven’t happened to most of us in our lifetimes, an objective observer would have to wonder whether such a conflict could happen to us or our children or our grandchildren, which reminds me that we need to focus on principles and ways of operating that will help us avoid such fights. Then I reflect on all this reflecting I'm doing—and how it’s taking my attention as away from my Memorial Day barbecuing picnic with friends and family which reminds me that I need to prioritize better. Cheers!

Remember that your goal is to put the right people in the right design. First understand the responsibilities of the role and the qualities needed to fulfill them, then ascertain whether an individual has them. When you're doing this well, there should almost be an audible "click" as the person you're hiring fits into his or her role. #principleoftheday#

Open-mindedness doesn't mean going along with what you don't believe in; it means considering the reasoning of others instead of stubbornly and illogically holding on to your own point of view. To be radically open-minded, you need to be so open to the possibility that you could be wrong that you encourage others to tell you so. #principleoftheday#

Understanding, accepting, and working with reality is both practical and beautiful. I have become so much of a hyperrealist that I’ve learned to appreciate the beauty of all realities, even harsh ones, and have come to despise impractical idealism. Don’t get me wrong: I believe in making dreams happen. To me, there’s nothing better in life than doing that. The pursuit of dreams is what gives life its flavor. My point is that people who create great things aren’t idle dreamers: They are totally grounded in reality. Being hyperrealistic will help you choose your dreams wisely and then achieve them. By interacting with my digital twin, you can evaluate your own decision-making processes and evolve your approach in real-time. The faster you evolve, the faster your results will follow.

One of my favorite principles, learned through experience, is that pain plus reflection equals progress. I developed a habit of viewing pain as a signal of a problem. If you treat that problem as a puzzle to solve, it ultimately yields a gem in the form of a great principle. I learned to value painful experiences because they became my best learning experiences and led to the most significant advances. Learning from direct encounters with reality is a much better way to succeed in life than simply remembering what others try to teach. @longislandu You can watch the full speech here:

Values are the deep-seated beliefs that motivate behaviors and determine people's compatibilities with each other. People will fight for their values, and they are likely to fight with people who don't share them. Abilities are ways of thinking and behaving. Some people are great learners and fast processors; others possess the ability to see things at a higher level. Some focus more on the particulars; still others think creatively or logically or with supreme organization. Skills are learned tools, such as being able to speak a foreign language or write computer code. While values and abilities are unlikely to change much, most skills can be acquired in a limited amount of time (e.g., software proficiency can be learned) and often change in worth (today's most in-demand programming language is likely to be obsolete in a few years). It is important for you to know what mix of qualities is important to fit each role and, more broadly, what values and abilities are required in people with whom you can have successful relationships. In picking people for long-term relationships, values are most important, abilities come next, and skills are the least important. Yet most people make the mistake of choosing skills and abilities first and overlooking values. We value people most who have what I call the three C's: character, common sense, and creativity. If your people are bound by a sense of community and mission and they are capable, you will have an extraordinary organization. Some people will value the mission and community and others won't. #principleoftheday#

I believe success is a matter of having meaningful work and meaningful relationships—work and relationships that you are thrilled by. If you can make your work and your passion one and the same, and you can do it with people who you care about and care about you, you will have a happy, successful life. @longislandu You can watch the full speech here:

Most attributes are a double-edged sword that bring potential benefits and potential harm. The more extreme the attribute, the more extreme the potential good or bad outcomes it is likely to produce. For example, a highly creative, goal-oriented person good at imagining new ideas might undervalue the minutiae of daily life, which is also important; he might be so driven in his pursuit of long-term goals that he might have disdain for people who focus on the details of daily life. Similarly, a task-oriented person who is great with details might undervalue creativity—and worse still, may squelch it in the interests of efficiency. These two people might make a great team, but are likely to have trouble taking advantage of the ways they’re complementary, because the ways their minds work make it difficult for them to see the value of each other’s ways of thinking. Having expectations for people (including yourself) without knowing what they are like is a sure way to get in trouble. I learned this the hard way, through years of frustrating conversations and the pain of expecting things from people who were constitutionally incapable of delivering them. I’m sure that I caused them plenty of pain too. #principleoftheday#
