The Three Rules

Once upon a time, I crafted three rules that apply to just about any situation. Here they are:

1. It can’t be helped.
2. It’s got to be done.
3. People suck.

Having just spent the morning clearing off a nearly foot-tall pile from my desk (mea culpa, I admit it publicly, I did NOT go to the gym today, go ahead and jeer or cheer as you prefer) an aggregation of old projects, new projects, receipts, photos, business cards, postcards, playing cards, ticket stubs, random notes, bits and pieces and whatnot—I found myself thinking about the Three Rules. You know what? They still work. Try them yourself, you’ll see.

That can't be helped. And lucky for us!
