#1 New York Times Bestseller “Significant...The book is both instructive and surprisingly moving.” —The New York Times Ray Dalio, one of the world’s most successful investors and entrepreneurs, shares the unconventional principles that he’s developed, refined, and used over the past forty years to create unique results in both life and business—and which any person or organization can adopt to help achieve their goals. In 1975, Ray Dalio founded an investment firm, Bridgewater Associates, out of his two-bedroom apartment in New York City. Forty years later, Bridgewater has made more money for its clients than any other hedge fund in history and grown into the fifth most important private company in the United States, according to Fortune magazine. Dalio himself has been named to Time magazine’s list of the 100 most influential people in the world. Along the way, Dalio discovered a set of unique principles that have led to Bridgewater’s exceptionally effective culture, which he describes as “an idea meritocracy that strives to achieve meaningful work and meaningful relationships through radical transparency.” It is these principles, and not anything special about Dalio—who grew up an ordinary kid in a middle-class Long Island neighborhood—that he believes are the reason behind his success. In Principles, Dalio shares what he’s learned over the course of his remarkable career. He argues that life, management, economics, and investing can all be systemized into rules and understood like machines. The book’s hundreds of practical lessons, which are built around his cornerstones of “radical truth” and “radical transparency,” include Dalio laying out the most effective ways for individuals and organizations to make decisions, approach challenges, and build strong teams. He also describes the innovative tools the firm uses to bring an idea meritocracy to life, such as creating “baseball cards” for all employees that distill their strengths and weaknesses, and employing computerized decision-making systems to make believability-weighted decisions. While the book brims with novel ideas for organizations and institutions, Principles also offers a clear, straightforward approach to decision-making that Dalio believes anyone can apply, no matter what they’re seeking to achieve. Here, from a man who has been called both “the Steve Jobs of investing” and “the philosopher king of the financial universe” (CIO magazine), is a rare opportunity to gain proven advice unlike anything you’ll find in the conventional business press.

Note: This is a SUMMARY of Ray Dalio's bestseller, Principles: Life & Work Principles became a #1 New York Times Bestseller for very specific reasons... Ray Dalio was raised in a middle-class family in Long Island, NY and later became one of the 100 wealthiest people in the world (according to Forbes). He found Bridgewater Associates out of his two-bedroom apartment and grew it to become the world's most successful hedge fund managing over $160 billion in assets. Bridgewater is renown for their policies of radical transparency and open-mindedness. If you work there, you're always expected to say what you think and be brutally honest, no matter your seniority. It's a unique company culture, and it runs on the Principles discussed in this book. These simple but profound Principles took 40 years to perfect. They were refined and evolved over that time. Each time Dalio and his partners encountered a new problem or challenge, they tried to find the underlying principle at work and tried to learn from their pain and struggle. Dalio has been called the "Da Vinci" of investing, but his knowledge base spreads much wider than the world economy. He is a bold and independent thinker with unusual and refreshingly grounded ideas on how to manage and grow a successful company as well as on how to live a fuller life. Who will benefit from this book? Dalio's principles will inspire any would-be entrepreneur and anyone who wants to find practical ways to make better decisions, deal with reality, and improve his or her lot in life. His no-nonsense, logical, and fire-tested strategies are useful to improve your ability to study, think clearly, and get ahead in business, as well as any other sphere of your life.

Straightforward yet profound, these principles teach partners new approaches for resolving conflicts, creating new common ground, and achieving greater levels of intimacy. Gottman offers strategies and resources to help couples collaborate more effectively to resolve any problem, whether dealing with issues related to sex, money, religion, work, family, or anything else. Packed with new exercises and the latest research out of the esteemed Gottman Institute, this revised edition of The Seven Principles for Making Marriage Work is the definitive guide for anyone who wants their relationship to attain its highest potential.

Principles may well be regarded as the main part of philosophy. They are among the major discoveries of philosophy, condensing in themselves much philosophical inquiry and insight. They are the starting point of much philosophical discussion. They are the base for exposition, for proof, and for criticism. They serve the student and the reader of philosophy much as legal maxims serve jurists and as proverbs serve the people. They are for scholastic philosophers the household truth of their tradition. This book includes not only all principles of scholastic philosophy but also exercises to apply the principles to several occasions. The book is useful for all students and professionals in philosophy.
