My One Dozen
Rules of Thumb
for a Better Life:
LIFE:
The Golden Rule
Who said life was fair ?
Don't talk
with a full mouth,
or an empty head.
When in doubt,
tell the truth.
If you wouldn't
write it, and sign it,
then don't say it.
Character
is what you do
when no one
is watching you.
A wise man
changes his mind;
a fool, never.
Don't believe
any predictions
of the future.
WORK:
Perfection
is the enemy,
of getting a job
done on time.
Think twice,
act once --
-- measure twice,
cut once.
Without data,
all you have
is an opinion.
If it was fun,
they wouldn't have
to pay you to do it.
