+In my professional environment, I value the following:
 
-=== "SSP" ===
+* Security, safety, privacy (for both employees/coworkers and customers)
-*Security*, *safety*, and *privacy*.
+* Accurate and followed deadlines
-
+* Quality first, quantity second, "quickness" third
-These concepts are paramount for both employees/coworkers/clients and customers. By holding these concepts in mind during all stages of a project or product's lifecycle, I believe that other areas (flexibility, economic growth, etc.) become much more achievable.
+** Reduce/avoid technical debt
-
+*** Deploy correctly the first time
-=== Timing ===
+*** Extensive planning
-*Deadlines* should be _accurate_ and _followed_. This allows for a smoother development, deployment, and consumer satisfaction level.
+*** Future-proofing
-
+** Separate Dev, Test/Staging, Production environments
-When determining deadlines and when developing or deploying *quality* comes first, *quantity* second, and *"quickness"* third. Efficiency is not efficient if it creates more work down the road at the cost of speed.
+** Scalability
-
+* Stability and availability over (individual) uptime
-=== Do it Right, Do it Once ===
+** Balancing
-By following a procedure and policy that allow for *testing* during development and deployment and by implementing *automation* into that cycle, it allows for *reducing/avoiding technical debt* by paving the road for:
+** Failover
-
+* Clear communication with customers when affected
-* Deploying correctly the first time
-* Extensive planning
-* Future-proofing
-
-This is accomplished by a strong focus on:
-
-* *Separate* _Dev_, _Test/Staging_, and _Production_ environments
-** *Scalability*
-
-=== Stability ===
-In the modern technological world of failover and redundancy, *stability* and *availability* of a service hold priority over individual machines' uptime.
-
-Because of this, I value *balancing* load/resources, deploying *strong failover procedures*, clear *priority levels/SLA* and *clear communication with consumers* when affected.
