“In the case of all things which have several parts and in which the totality is not, as it were, a mere heap, but the whole is something besides the parts, there is a cause; for even in bodies contact is the cause of unity in some cases, and in others viscosity or some other such quality.” - Aristotle’s Metaphysics

“Creativity is more than just being different. Anybody can play weird-- that's easy. What's hard is to be as simple as Bach. Making the simple complicated is commonplace--making the complicated simple, awesomely simple--that's creativity.” - Charles Mingus

“Ever tried. Ever failed. No matter. Try again. Fail again. Fail better.” - Samuel Beckett, Worstward Ho

Overall Themes

• Give the benefit of the doubt
• Don’t assume, have a conversation to get clarification
• Provide support and resources to the rest of the DAO contributors
• Maintain focus on priorities, the DAO is very big, moves quickly, and is distracting.
• Operations is the glue, backbone, stage managers, testers and 👀 and 👂s  of the DAO
• Be prepared, supportive, direct, and respectful.
• Don’t Trust. Verify.

General
