 +<blockquote>
 +Like sustainability, resilience encompasses both strategy and design, guiding how choices are made and how systems are created. Stripped to its essence, it comes down to avoiding being trapped -- or trapping oneself -- on a losing path. Principles of resilience include:
 +
 +  - **Diversity**: Not relying on a single kind of solution means not suffering from a single point of failure.
 +  - **Redundancy**: Backup, backup, backup. Never leave yourself with just one path of escape or rescue.
 +  - **Decentralization**: Centralized systems look strong, but when they fail, they fail catastrophically.
 +  - **Collaboration**: We're all in this together. Take advantage of collaborative technologies, especially those offering shared communication and information.
 +  - **Transparency**: Don't hide your systems -- transparency makes it easier to figure out where a problem may lie. Share your plans and preparations, and listen when people point out flaws.
 +  - **Fail gracefully**: Failure happens, so make sure that a failure state won't make things worse than they are already.
 +  - **Flexibility**: Be ready to change your plans when they're not working the way you expected; don't count on things remaining stable.
 +  - **Foresight**: You can't predict the future, but you can hear its footsteps approaching. Think and prepare.
