What are your "Rules for Life?"

[swingline]

Righty tighty, lefty loosey.

Except with propane containers.

One rule I sorta live by: The doctor can suggest, but it's up to me to determine my level of care. The doctor can't demand anything.

 

[Oggiedoggie]

Except with propane containers.

And the threads for pedals on the left side of bicycles.

 

[Octave]

Don't shirt where you eat.

 

[DanielSimpsonDay]

Don't be afraid to take a loss

Don't ask questions you know the answers to

Stay in or go out? GO.

Be loyal until you're given a reason not to be

Know what you want to come from every conversation

In a men's room, you're generally better off in the second stall from the door than the first.


(note: this is from a Louise Penny novel. I've found it to be sound advice).

Years ago I worked for a hard ass boss who I was convinced was going to rip me a new one for a mistake I made on a report that I couldn't correct and resend before he saw it.

Instead he told me something I have never forgotten:

"There's a reason they put erasers on pencils. People make mistakes."

[garrow]

Never vote for amateurs
Forgive and forget
Pick your battles
Always know when to be flexible and when to be steadfast

 

[Octave]

say what you mean and mean what you say.

 

[playthrough]

Don't sweat the small stuff
Don't go cheap on ice cream
Stay off the forking Twitter
Tell your parents you love them
Check tickets before leaving the window

 

[Driftwood]

Enjoy every day. One of them will be your last.
