Break the Rules To Be a Success
Becoming a rebel just may save you from insanity!
Since the time we were born, rules have been set into motion.
Some rules are to keep us safe, away from harm….rules like:
You re not to run in the kitchen
Don t go near the stove
Don t play with fire
You must look both ways before you cross the road
-

-
Others keep us out of jail!
Don t lie
Don t steal
Don t cheat
Don t hit, kill, maim
-
’

And other keep us moving forward and healthy:
Don t copy other peoples work unless quoted and referenced
Attend 80 percent of classes or you will fail
Don t sit at your desk all day without getting up and walking around
Don t take drugs
Do your taxes and so it goes…
-

But what about the rules you need to break?
Sometimes these rules are made by others….say…your parents
or partner….
But most of them are self imposed.
-
What are your self imposed rules?
-
And where do they come from?
This is probably a difficult question to answer…as you may just
follow these rules, obliviously, because you have done so for
so long.
