The Whole, on One Page
How the words fit together. Every underlined word opens its definition in the vocabulary.
The Commandment
Always regen. Never degen.
In plain words: never win at anyone’s expense, including your own. It is for the prosperity, happiness, longevity, and intelligence of humans.
Behavior
Degen: Value destroying, value usurping
Regen: Value producing, value creating
Way to live
Degen: Surviving
Regen: Thriving
Games
Degen: Negative-sum and zero-sum. Finite
Regen: Positive-sum. Infinite
Civilization
Degen: Anticivilization
Regen: Supercivilization
To avolve is to go from degen to regen, further and faster, under your own direction.

The Method
Four steps, in order. The last step feeds the first, so it repeats, big and small.
Current is where you are now, known exactly, including what you do not want.
Starting carries it to the next step.
Desired is what you want, written down and decided.
Focusing carries it to the next step.
Actions are what you do to get from Current to Desired.
Finishing carries it to the next step.
Results are what really happened, kept as a score and reviewed.
The meta loop: Results become the next Current, so the method repeats, big and small.
The Family Office
A family office looks after both sides of one life as a whole: family and office. It is more than wealth management.
Family is the personal side of a person’s life. Personal success.
A principal is the person a family office serves, and the one who decides.
Office is the business side of a person’s life. Business success.
- Agent
- An agent is AI that does work for a principal and answers to them.
- Nobody plays your character
- Nobody plays your character. Each success puzzle is its own principal’s responsibility. Others can see how you play, if you choose.
- Do it yourself, done with you, done for you
- The three levels of help with a family office: do it yourself, done with you, done for you.
The Same Things, in the Words of the Game

The Path of a Society
The four stages come from The Network State, a book by Balaji Srinivasan. Each one is a good place to be.
A startup society is a new community built on the internet first, joined by choice, around one purpose. Here: a company of core cooperators.
A network union is a startup society organized to act together. Here: a community of mesh connectors.
A network archipelago is a network union with real places around the world, connected online. Here: a country of node operators.
A network state is a network archipelago that an existing government has recognized. None exists yet. For this world it is a direction.
