Rules to live by

[L8 APEX]

I ran across a few interesting lines. I think Moonshine came up with them:rll:

Be polite. Be professional. But, have a plan to kill everyone you meet.
Be courteous to everyone. Friendly to no one.
Decide to be aggressive ENOUGH, quickly ENOUGH.
Don't drop your guard.
Have a plan.
Have a back-up plan, because the first one won't work.
Always cheat, always win.

A couple of Machiavellian / "end justifes the means" thinkers! :D

One of my favorite quotes is from Carlos Hathcock. (http://www.angelfire.com/fl4/ultimatesniper/carlos.html)

It goes like this ...

It is not the critic who counts, not the one who points out how the strong
man stumbled or how the doer of deeds might have done them better. The
credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred with sweat and dust and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs and comes short again and again; who knows the great enthusiasms, the great devotions, and spends himself in a worthy cause; who, if he wins, knows the triumph of high achievement; and who, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who know neither victory nor defeat.
-Carlos Hathcock, Man In The Arena

BTW, Hathcock was a native of Arkansas. :D

:rll: I told a few people at work that this is the mantra I choose to live by and now they are all afraid of me! There's more than one way to get respect.

Tom, I think you may find less open fear if you don't tell them the specific plan you have for each of them. :rolleyes:

Tom,

I know a nice quiet place with padded cells and nice white jackets that buckle in the back... :evil
