Principlev1
When analyzing successes, classify each contributing factor
When analyzing successes, classify each contributing factor as replicable (within your control) versus contingent (dependent on external circumstances), then extract operational principles only from the replicable factors to avoid attributing controllable outcomes to luck.
Why This Is a Principle
Derives from Hindsight Bias and Calibration Necessity (memory reconstructs toward known outcomes) and Domain-Specific Calibration Development (calibration requires feedback loops). This principle prescribes a specific analysis method to separate signal from noise in success reviews, preventing survivorship bias and false pattern extraction.
