Principles: Life

by Ray Dalio

Ray Dalio is one of the most successful people alive. In fact, Time magazine says that he’s one of the 100 most influential people on the planet while Fortune magazine tells us his company (Bridgewater Associates) is the 5th most impactful private company in the U.S. and Forbes tells us that he’s one of the 100 wealthiest people on the planet. All of which makes Dalio, to use his words, “believable” when it comes to discussing how to get what we want in life and work. Enter: Principles. Big Ideas we explore: how to evolve, what’s most important, meet the shapers, Principles #1 (Embrace reality and deal with it) + #2 (5-Step process to getting what you want in life), and the two AI’s: Artificial Intelligence + Ancient Intelligence.

Step Back. Think. Get As Much of BOTH As Possible

Ray Dalio shares a ton of wisdom in his epic book Principles. Here’s an idea I come back to often in my coaching sessions and in my own strategic thinking. It goes something like this: When you’re faced with an apparent either/or decision, slow down, step back, and think harder about how you can have...

In fact, his spiraling loops are almost identical to Ray Dalio’s spiraling loops. Remember his? We...

A Quick Look at Public Benefit Corporations

In our last +1, we took a very quick, high-level look at the growing recognition of the fact that businesses can (and I’d say must!) be used as a force for good. I mentioned The Economist cover story on what they call “Shareholder Capitalism” along with John Mackey’s debate with Milton Friedman (...
