Only hacks blame briefs
The work needs to work
Patterns expose truth
Recognize great work before it becomes good work
Respect is contagious
Rigging strategy to fit work is fraud
Courage requires fear
Confidence is rarer than creativity
Originality is a false virtue
Morale always shows up in the work
Awards are a vice
Funny isn’t a strategy
Edit brutally
If it’s not right, it’s wrong
Use process responsibly
Try empathy
You are not your work
