Draft Simple Rules for Effective Assemblies
2 March 2023
Assumptions
Primary Goal for FGJA =>
Create the most free, productive, joyful state in the united States of America
Constantly Educate the people on how to self govern and 7 Step Problem Solving
The only legitimate role for government in a free society is to protect the rights of We the People
Common language => create a dictionary to reduce communication breakdowns
Simple Rules
1. Unite by putting aside our petty differences : E Pluribus Unam => out of many one voice: unselfish team spirit :
2. Seek what is true from facts, logic, reasoning to deduce root causes : Find Pareto of Root causes to select best corrective action to solve a problem
3. Respect to get it
4. Do the right thing
5. Seek to understand before being understood
6. Love and compassion win
7. Expect the unexpected
8. Problem Analysis required if more than 3 variables changing simultaneously , a “ do nothing “ strategy beats the best brains : due to brains inability to comprehend unintended consequences with more than 3 variables
9. Embrace change passionately
10. Optimize the whole system by optimizing the interactions between the subsystems
11. Strive to determine causality not just correlation.
12. Let the best idea win
13. Decentralize for freedom
14. Who dares wins !
15. Assumed consent
16. No disruptive behavior
17. No personal attacks
18.
Draft Simple Rules for Effective Assembly Debates
1. None of us is as smart as all of us => try to gain participation by any member who wants to contribute.
2. Attempt to get all viewpoints to be revealed
3. Argue with facts and logic not opinions unless no facts available
4. Do not take debates or votes personally
5. Respect to get it ; Do not talk over each other ; Listen to understand each other
6. If someone has already put comments into the debate that you agree with, no need to restate
7. If you have an idea which you think can improve the concepts under debate, or reduce the risks involved, it is your duty to ask for the floor and express as clearly and succinctly your ideas
8. Try hard not to repeat the same basic points unless new information becomes available
9. Build a decision matrix using facts, then add intuition
10. Benefits sell, features don’t ;
11. If more than 3 variables are changing at sane time, do nothing beats the best people’s brains.
12. Occam’s Razor => simplest explanation most likely correct
13. Notice the difference between causality and correlation
