Principles

by Ray Dalio

Insight: In life we are not satisfied by obtaining goals, but by striving for them.
Insight: Acquiring material things beyond their usefulness doesn't provide any benefits, rather it comes at a cost.
Insight: The law of diminishing returns means that it is natural to seek new things, or new dimensions to old things to bring satisfaction.
Principle: Seek new things (goals); work toward and learning in the process of pursuing goals; achieve goals; continue this process.
