Understanding this quote
This warns that principles only matter if you follow them consistently. If you abandon them when they become difficult, your plans, efforts, or credibility may fail before they have a real chance to succeed. “Dead on arrival” is a vivid way of saying that without firm principles, what you are trying to build has no effective starting point.
