System of Abundance tries to live the Open Source Way in our work-life and in our life-life. I try to read it every month at least. You can see where I pulled it and read a lot of other content about applying open source in life (less geeky, more real-life) here http://opensource.com/open-source-way

Open exchange
We can learn more from each other when information is open. A free exchange of ideas is critical to creating an environment where people are allowed to learn and use existing information toward creating new ideas.
Participation
When we are free to collaborate, we create. We can solve problems that no one person may be able to solve on their own.
Rapid prototyping
Rapid prototypes can lead to rapid failures, but that leads to better solutions found faster. When you're free to experiment, you can look at problems in new ways and look for answers in new places. You can learn by doing.
Meritocracy
In a meritocracy, the best ideas win. In a meritocracy, everyone has access to the same information. Successful work determines which projects rise and gather effort from the community.
Community
Communities are formed around a common purpose. They bring together diverse ideas and share work. Together, a global community can create beyond the capabilities of any one individual. It multiplies effort and shares the work. Together, we can do more.
