PRINCIPLES by Ray Dalio | Animated Core Message

Animated core message from Jason Fried's book 'Rework.'

Your animations DO NOT suck! But don't let that stop you from improving. Thanks for all you do.

Being "teachable" is such a critical character trait. One that demonstrates this realizes they may not be right, is willing to question their own beliefs, and actively solicits feedback from those around them to continually improve. Great post Nathan!

Hi Nathan:
Another very useful video!

A couple of comments showed that many of us are curious about the process you use to summarize a book and turn that into a video summary. The process of how to summarize a book and the sub-process of intelligent highlighting are something many of us fail at and need to improve!

Though your core purpose is to summarize books and share their most valuable ideas, I’m sure you’d get a lot of traffic if you could do a video on:
1) how to summarize a book
2) how to highlight intelligently as part of a summarizing strategy
3) the google doc you’ve created to articulate the principles of how to summarize a book and
4) why explaining what you have learned to others (via YouTube video or just telling a friend) is so useful not just to the person who hears the summary, but to the person who spends the time and effort to produce the summary.

Your channel is by far the best one of its kind, delivering a level of quality that channels with even 10 or 20 times the subscribers don't. Keep up the great work and a big THANK YOU from Germany.

Pain + Reflection = Progress
1. Be radically open minded
Ask for true feedbacks.
What am i missing?
How can i ger honest feedback?
2. Find the root cause:Try to fix that weakness.
3. Write your principles down: Write down principles where you suck.

I need that thank you. Often times, we take big steps to get around to not have to deal with a cause of suffering rather than actually being honest with ourselves and take a look at the root cause.

[yanwang]

I appreciate a lot your efforts on so many high-quality books as a higher-quality filter!

[EritreanChic]

I like your animations and layout! Many of us appreciate clean simplicity. It is less “busy” and distracting. The pacing of your animations is enough to keep it interesting but not excessive enough to distract. DON’T CHANGE. Your channel has grown this far so you’re doing something right :)

Also really appreciate that there is no background music!

[dominiccallori]

Well done! I’ve read most of these books and it’s interesting that your videos give me another perspective that I didn’t necessarily get while reading. Same information, different perception and summary. And still very valuable. Love it.

[spaceforthesoul]

Your pace is perfect. Time to let the message sink in and truely learn.

[audiobooksummary]

This book must be in everyone's book list!

[Brandon-gwed]

[paultchaparian]

I want to say a big thank you to you because your videos motivated me to read books. In other words you the reason I read books. God bless you

[irinaeva]

I love your videos, especially when you give a little bit of your own experience and story in relation to what you’ve learned from a book 👍🏻

Can you share more about your highlighting system? It seems like your brain works in similar way to mine and I’d be really grateful to learn this from you

[ajaymishra]

I don't care what others say about your animations. But I really loved it and it's really inspirational. Plese keep doing this..

[KarenChungIvy]

Excellent - and very timely for me personally.
Someone criticized your animations? I've loved them from the very first video! Thank you for all your wonderful work and all the knowledge you share with the rest of the world! I share your videos regularly with our local business book club.

[BallEcomThatthana]

Amazing video! Thank you for the hard work you did for us.
