Job and Life Rules to Follow


  • Decide which game to play. Is winning that important all of the time?


  • Jump in, ready or not. Take risks, you may not be able to tomorrow.


  • Keep on truckin'. You know the highway, keep up with the flow.


  • Grab opportunities. Can you recognize one or are you always thinking about it?


  • No excuses allowed. Of course not, don't whine either.


  • Ignore naysayers. They don't know any more than you do.


  • Never personalize. It's just a game, your next boss may be around the corner.


  • Whistle while you work!


  • Don't yell fire when you're downsized.


  • Smiling helps a lot.
