# Principles

## 1. Make IT Simple.

* Bear in mind that huge groups of people may be very foolish, that's why teams should be small.
* There are no points awarded for complex diagrams, instructions, or systems. If you're unable to convey it to a newcomer on Day 1, you're definitely overcomplicating it.
* Be constantly on the lookout for ways to simplify processes, and don’t treat anything as sacred.
* Keep your work as minimalist
* Utilize the three-step rule; result should be achieved within three step.

## 2. Insist on the Highest Standards.

* Be clear with our standards.
* Our standards are the minimum required (the floor), not something to attempt to reach (the ceiling).
* Do not compromise on our standards.
* Insist that everyone is always raising them.
* Give clear feedback to individuals if they don’t meet our standards.
* Remove those that cannot consistently meet and exceed our standards.

## 3. Always Be Learning
