Download or read book Principles written by Ray Dalio and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2018-08-07 with total page 560 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #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.
Download or read book Principles written by Bobby Waddell and published by Christian Faith Publishing, Inc.. This book was released on 2020-11-03 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There are a variety of Christian denominations on this planet, but to be a Christian, one simply has to believe in certain principles of our faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord. Constant practice of those principles is imperative for the Christian's growth. There are five major Christian principles that have been identified: prayer, Bible study, church support, giving and tithing, and witnessing about Jesus Christ. All five of these principles are biblically based with references included in this composite book. The first Christian principle, Bible study, must be an integral part of your daily life. Whether you read the Bible orally or silently each day, Bible study equips the Christian with the necessary tools to deal with the problems and challenges that you face daily. The second Christian principle, prayer, is equally as important as the first. Communication is necessary for any person to be successful in the world. Well communication with God is mandatory if one wants direction and help with the numerous challenges that we all must face daily. The third Christian principle, giving, is part of the command of Jesus. Giving of our self to the God and to the world at large is a component that has to be adhered to if one professes to be a Christian. The fourth Christian principle, church, is necessary for stability in our life as a Christian. It's important for any Christian to have a place where they can get Christian fellowship; after all, fellowship is one of the key truths found in the New Testament The fifth Christian principle, witnessing, is a command of Jesus. The Great Commission found in the Gospel of Matthew and Acts orders us as Christians to go out into the world and tell others about the saving grace in Jesus Christ. The Old Testament and New Testament have been used to prove the legitimacy of the five Christian principles. Throughout my ministry, I've personally seen these principles practiced by my parents, family, local church members, and of course myself. These principles work, and if practiced, a change can occur in the life of the Christian who consistently makes them a part of their life.

But what if there was a way to teach children how to manage priorities, focus on goals and be a positive influence on the world around them? The Leader in Meis that programme. It's based on a hugely successful initiative carried out at the A.B. Combs Elementary School in North Carolina. To hear the parents of A. B Combs talk about the school is to be amazed. In 1999, the school debuted a programme that taught The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Peopleto a pilot group of students.
