#6: If you want to make something 10 times cheaper, remove 90 percent of the material. I picked this as my secret because i feel that if we took a deeper look into things then we would be able to solve some of the under linning problems. i believe to truly solve a problem you must remove 90% of it's layers. by doing so it will creat an openness as to what we do not see.

Favortie Secret
#6: if you want to make something 10 times cheaper, remove 90 percent of the material. i picked this secret because i feel that in order to really experience something you must remove majority of the layers. In our world today part of it's problem is that it is covered and not stripped down to it's roots. i feel that this will be a way to change things because it will allow us to get to the meat of any problem.
