If you had to teach someone Judo with just 3 principles, what would you teach them?

The big ones for me that made the biggest difference in my Judo (as far as I can tell):

- keep your back straight, no matter what

- get an upper arm grip

- think about your planting foot (where it has to be so the throw can be done) before you think about your reaping foot

Might sound like no-brainers to some but just keeping these 3 things in mind has dramatically improved my defensive and offensive abilities. How would you teach a beginner with just 3 principles?
