Tragic

One of the best gifts I was ever given. When I was twenty-one years old, fresh out of college and about to start my first job, my father gave me a handwritten list of instructions. Here are my dad’s rules for success: > Do at least 10% more than you are asked. > Never, ever, to anybody, present as fact, opinions on things you don’t know. Take great care and discipline. > Be courteous and considerate always— up and down. > Don’t knock, don’t complain—stick to constructive, serious criticism. > Don’t be afraid to make decisions when you have the facts on which to make them. > Quantify where possible. > Be open-minded but skeptical. > Be prompt. I’ve passed these same rules on to my own children and the original copy hangs next to my bathroom mirror.
