A Living Agreement for
the Principled

Integrity First
Prize clarity over charisma. Prioritise a currency of truth; spoken plainly, even if inconvenient.

Sovereignty + Responsibility
Own your choices, your energy, and your commitments. No saviors, no martyrs, no passengers.

Slow is Smooth, Smooth is Fast
Move at the speed of trust. Our best work is rarely rushed; our worst decisions always are.

Disciplined Generosity
Give without draining, and receive without taking. No covert contracts.

Radical Transparency
When stakes are high, details are shared. From capital to credit, attribution is explicit.

High Signal / Low Noise
Respect deep work and quiet. Intrusions are rare, intentional, and always purposeful.

Rest as a Strategic Asset
We protect nervous-system health as fiercely as balance sheets. Burnout is failure, not a badge.

Mutual Accountability
No one is above review. Feedback is not a threat, it’s a safeguard.

Design for Longevity
What we build should endure beyond our own involvement, fragility is unnecessary.

Exit with Grace
When it’s time to leave, close loops, clear debts, and keep bridges intact.
