Bad Man 101


I live life by a very simple set of rules.  

Welcome to Bad Man 101.

You already know rules 1,2 and 3.  But, I’ll reiterate.
One.
Do your dirt by your lonely.
Two.
Keep your mouth shut.
Three.
Always look good leaving.


Here are some other rules, add them where you want,
just understand these are very important and must be adhered to
 ... if you want to get ahead in this life.

Rule - Never reveal 100% of anything, to anyone… Ever.
It’s good for people to know that you’re a mover and a shaker.
But it’s none of their goddamn business what you’re moving
… or why you’re shaking.
Learn to speak between the lines.

Rule - Your word is your bond… Always.
If you say you’re going to do something, then you best fucking do it.
Otherwise you are as cheap as your talk.

Rule – A wrong decision is better than no decision.
Simply put.  Stand for something or you’ll fall for anything.

Rule – Work harder than everyone else.
Not just for the money, but to get the experience faster than the next guy.
One day, you’ll be the leader.
It would be nice of you to know what the hell you’re doing.

Rule – You are worth as much as you can ask for with a straight face.
Try it in a mirror.  Ask for a million dollars.
Practice until you can ask without laughing at yourself.
When the time comes, you’ll be able to ask a price for your services
… and you’ll get it.

Rule - Never forgive betrayal. 
Never.

Rule – It is OK to knowingly lie, 
to preserve the innocents of a child.
Yes, Santa is real.
Yes, The Tooth Fairy put that there…
No. I’ve never been to jail.


Learn these rules well; one day there will be a test… And won’t be from me.


Good Luck.
Sincerely,
The Bad Man
