I probably broke most of those rules, most of the time. Here's my list, off the top of my head: 1) Read a relevant book every two weeks so you know what you're doing 2) Ask questions and challenge unarticulated assumptions 3) Be thorough and meticulous 4) Guard against arrogance and inappropriate emotional investment 5) Relocate to a suitable city, if necessary 6) Maintain an orderly work area 7) Maintain above average grooming 8) Maintain above average dress 9) Don't let your weight get out of control 10) Smile You seem to be walking the walk, Steve. That's a great inspiration to those of us contemplating a new business. Thanks for sharing the tools of your success! I'm looking forward to reading Getting Things Done; and giving it a try.
