Four lists items, each pairing a short imperative with the behaviour it implies. The done-list styling reads
as a checklist, so items should be things a person can genuinely do or not do.

Pitfalls
- ❌ Values as slogans ("Be excellent") → ✅ behaviours are observable; slogans are not
- ❌ Ten principles → ✅ four or five are remembered, ten are ignored
- ❌ No counter-example → ✅ pair each behaviour with what it replaces in the surrounding text
