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. Ray Dalio is the founder and mentor of Bridgewater Associates, which, over the last forty years, has become the largest and best performing hedge fund in the world. He is the author of [#1]() New York Times Bestseller and [#1]() Amazon Business Book of the Year, Principles. Dalio has appeared on the Time 100 list of the most influential people in the world as well as the Bloomberg Markets list of the 50 most influential people. He lives with his family in Connecticut. 《原则》是全球顶级投资家、桥水基金创始人瑞·达利欧倾注毕生经验写就的经典之作，被誉为“人生与管理的终极指南”。这本书不仅是一位投资大师的经验总结，更是一套应对生活与工作的系统化方法论。瑞·达利欧的《原则》是他一生经验和思考的精华，凝结了其在投资、工作和生活中遵循的基本法则。这些原则帮助他应对挑战、做出明智决策并取得了非凡的成就。 以下是《原则》一书中的100个顶级认知，它们提供了一个独特的视角和实用的框架，助你更好地理解现实、持续成长并追求有意义的人生和事业。 ▲ 瑞·达利欧，桥水基金创始人，被誉为"投资界的乔布斯" 如果你还不知道瑞·达利欧，你只需要记住这三件事： 桥水基金：他创立的对冲基金，管理资产峰值超过1600亿美元，是全世界最大的对冲基金； 两次"史诗级"预测：1987年精准预测美股崩盘，2008年金融危机前提前布局，为客户赚得盆满钵满； 极度透明文化：他在桥水推行一种近乎"残酷"的透明文化——任何人都可以当面批评任何人，包括他自己。 但达利欧最了不起的，不是他赚了多少钱。 而是他把"如何做出正确决策"这件事，变成了一套可以复制的原则体系 你当下的所有人生结果， 全是自己一次次选择的总和… 瑞·达利欧（Ray Dalio），全球最大对冲基金桥水基金创始人，投资界“宏观交易大师”，曾精准预测2008年金融危机 。《原则》（2017）是其40年人生与商业经验的沉淀，豆瓣8.3分，全球销量超300万册，核心是一套可复制、可迭代、可量化的人生与工作决策方法论，被誉为“改变世界的思维指南 很多时候你觉得人生不顺， 可能根本不是运气差、遇人不淑， 而是你从没学会为自己的每一个选择兜底。 今天给大家推荐《原则》这本书， 有一条关键性的“原则”， 那就是：“为自己负责”。 作者瑞・达利欧 是全球顶级投资机构桥水基金的创始人， 靠着一套自己总结的行事原则， 把桥水做成了全世界最赚钱的对冲基金之一， 甚至在 2008 年金融危机、 2020 年美股熔断的极端行情里都能稳赚不赔。 这本书就是他把自己 40 多年投资以及生活经验， 全部提炼成了普通人也能直接用的处事准则， 全书分为生活原则和工作原则两大板块， 每一条都是非常受用的干货。 你当下的所有人生结果， 全是自己一次次选择的总和… 这是我最受触动的贯穿全书的核心态度。 境遇不好、遭遇失败的时候， 永远先向内看，别忙着向外找借口。 而很多人是习惯性推卸责任： 工作搞砸了先怪同事不配合、领导要求太苛刻，感情出问题先怪对方不够体贴、不懂迁就， 甚至连没攒下钱都要怪物价太高、工资太低， 却忘了当初敷衍工作的是你、 吵架时不肯好好沟通的是你、 忍不住乱花钱的也是你。 瑞·达利欧的《原则》是他一生经验和思考的精华，凝结了其在投资、工作和生活中遵循的基本法则。这些原则帮助他应对挑战、做出明智决策并取得了非凡的成就。以下是《原则》一书中的100个顶级认知，它们提供了一个独特的视角和实用的框架，助你更好地理解现实、持续成长并追求有意义的人生和事业。 生活原则 作者提出“极度真实、极度透明”的核心原则，认为拥抱现实、应对现实是成功的基础。他强调了从错误中学习的价值，将痛苦视为进步的信号，并提出了“五步流程法”实现目标：设定目标、发现问题、诊断根源、规划方案、坚定执行。 工作原则 将桥水基金独特的“创意择优”文化系统化，强调通过“可信度加权决策”做最佳选择。达利欧认为，组织应像机器一样运行，通过严格的文化和优秀的人来实现目标，而正确的决策需要建立在公开透明、理性表达和合理分歧之上。 瑞·达利欧（Ray Dalio），1949年生于纽约，桥水基金创始人。他从12岁开始投资，后获哈佛商学院MBA学位。1975年，他在纽约的公寓内创立桥水，将其发展为全球最大对冲基金，巅峰管理规模超1600亿美元，在2008年金融危机中逆势盈利。 其成功核心是构建了一套基于“极端真实与透明”的原则化决策系统，并将公司管理理念总结为《原则》一书，风靡全球 Welcome to our weekly booking reading sharing + British Parliamentary Debate, language & cultural exchange meetup event which focus on informal and fun way to meet new people and cultural discussion.

Join us as we discuss our June pick: Metal Slinger by Rachel Schneider! Book description: Even though she's not one of them, Brynn has spent her life among the Alaha, training to be a guard and waiting for the chance to attend the annual market hosted by the Kenta–the very same people who exiled her adopted community to a life at sea. Going to the market is a rite of passage eagerly anticipated by all young guards, but Brynn does not anticipate breaking a century-long peace treaty while there. Nor does she plan for the intense encounter with an enemy soldier that now threatens to unwind the fragile coexistence between their people–and everything Brynn once believed about herself to be true. Brynn's loyalty to the Alaha is tested when the truth of her identity is brought to light by this soldier who's taken an oath to bring her back to where she belongs. Narrowly escaping death on the violent high seas, Brynn's connection to the Alaha is further tested when she learns about the world of magic she's been denied. She was once certain of her fate and where she belonged, but the dark, knowing eyes of this stranger have her questioning everything, including her heart. Packed with knife fights and seafaring adventure, METAL SLINGER is the smash-hit start to the romantic fantasy duology, the Fire & Metal series
