• Simplicity—the art of maximizing the amount of work not done—is essential.

• Our highest priority is to satisfy the customer through early and continuous delivery of valuable software.
  
• The best architectures, requirements, and designs emerge from self-organizing teams.
  
• The sponsors, developers, and users should be able to maintain a constant pace indefinitely.
  
• Deliver working software frequently, from a couple of weeks to a couple of months, with a preference to the shorter time scale.
  
• Continuous attention to technical excellence and good design enhances agility.
  
• Build projects around motivated individuals. Give them the environment and support they need, and trust them to get the job done.
  
• Working software is the primary measure of progress.
