Rules of the garage

Rules of the garage:
Believe you can change the world.
Work quickly, keep the tools unlocked,
work whenever.

Know when to work alone and when to
work together.
Share — tools, ideas. Trust your colleagues.

No politics. No bureaucracy. (These are ridiculous
in a garage.)
The customer defines a job well done.

Radical ideas are not bad ideas.
Invent different ways of working.

Make a contribution every day. If it doesn’t
contribute, it doesn’t leave the garage.

Believe that together we can do anything.
Invent.
