Rule to live by (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tenet

'rule to live by' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for tenet that I've seen before include "Belief - maxim" , "That's the law" , "Doctrine, dogma, belief" , "Dogma or principle" , "Item of belief" .)

I've seen this clue in The Wall Street Journal.
