The Rules...

[Supracentral]

I've been sitting here doing one of those bizarro introspective things with myself and decided to write down my rules:

1. Be the ruler of your life, but not a tyrant.
2. Accept who you are and what is within yourself.
3. Learn what your wants, needs and desires are - work and earn the rewards to satisfy them.
4. Speak up, be open and truthful about what you say
5. Be proud but not arrogant.
6. Commands respect without causing fear.
7. Strength (physical, mental, emotional, financial) is a tool, develop it and use it, but choose never use force.
8. Criticise freely, but accept criticisim as well without being offended.
9. Accept what is freely givien but never take what is not.
10. Complacency is cancer. <-- credit to thesandymancan for this one!

Discuss.

Very nice. Numero dos is always a struggle for me.

#4, however, is DEFINITELY not.

You may have just caused me to reevaluate my life.......The only one I don't like is eight. I don't believe in criticism unless someone asks your opinion. I do believe in telling the truth, I'm just not going to go out of my way to criticize. I think it is very thought out and written very well.............lol

Edit: Example of criticism. Post number 422 in the picture of yourself thread. A guy post his picture just like everyone else does. Maybe he looks a little different with the clothes he had on, but we all look different one way or another. There's about five or six post making fun of him and his clothes. I just refuse to criticize someone on the way they look. That's my choice and no one can change it. Just like I can't change their choice to make fun of someone.........I'm sure it was all in good fun, but we don't know how he took it. I never seen him post any responses. I hope he took it well.............lol

That right there is nice criticism SH, and I agree.. :biglaugh:

One of my rules/saying is: My only limitation is my own imagination. Edit, I guess that can fall under #2.

Is it criticism or adulations? Just kidding Joel...........lol

I love yours also, maybe you too should make a list...............

 

[Joel W.]

Both, but to criticise is to give points for and against, not just against.

Edit: That is my list.. hahaha, but really my only rule is to try make it through the day without hurting anyone and be happy about it. "Try" being the key word.

Wow... It's one of my internal rules, but damn man, that's the best way I've ever heard it put. I am adding that to the list (Credit to you + a bunch of rep for that one). That kicks ass and is more true than a lot of things.

Hrm... I think you guys may misunderstand, I should have added "when appropriate" onto the end of that.

Politicians, those in the public light, people I am paying, those people get my uninvited criticisim. Also, people who's ineptitude, rudeness and thoughtlessness forces them into my life also get it.

For example, I see some lady walking down the street with an ugly face, I'm not going to run up to her and yell "Damn woman! You ugly!"

However if the same woman decides that her fucking SUV is a weapon and cuts me off, I'm going to tell her exactly what I think of her, her shit box vehicle and what I think of her driving skills. Inevitably she'll have a bunch of ill behaved little brats in the back, I'll probably tell her what I feel about thier future under her guidance as well.

Damn, woman. Youre ugly!......................it was funnier when you said it......lol
