I came up with these years ago, and though I see the world with more nuance now than i did back then, I still believe in the following “rules” as the basic foundation for the way i try to live my life.

I’ve developed many more over the years, and I’m sure i will get to them in time, but these are the big three upon which the others are built.

1) take care of your own business

2) don’t expect special treatment

3) do things that you’ll enjoy thinking about when you’re old

Each of these will get their own post with more details at some point in the future.

And please, if you disagree or have strong opinions to the contrary, I welcome your feedback in the comments.
