Make Business Simple – Four-Word Rules For Success
Rules for Success

If you've been along, you know we've spent the last few weeks talking about the four-word success.  My goal remains simple: I want to give you easy to implement , tactics, and techniques to make your business better.

Each rule is only four words long because often that's all it takes to make a huge difference when you build and your business. And it's because four words are about all my short attention span can handle!

Rule #1 is “Shut the @#$%!! up.” If you missed it just point your browser HERE.

Rule #2 is “Take them to lunch.” If you missed that one just point your browser HERE.

Today's rule might be counter-intuitive and maybe even a little icky. But in all the years I've created for some of the biggest companies in the world I have found that Rule #3 proves itself true time and time again. And besides being the key to a business, Rule #3 is also an important component of improving the quality of your life.

Ready? Rule #3 is simple.

Don't Work With Assholes.

That's it.

Life is too short, and the world is too small, for you to be spending time working for – or with – people who make your life miserable. Not only do toxic people make your life unpleasant, working for folks like that will not result in great work or enviable profits.

But it gets even worse. That's because working with unpleasant people will keep you from making money and enjoying yourself, and they will destroy your environments they work within. What that means to you is that your unpleasant clients — and your unpleasant employees — not only ruin the part of your business they are involved in, they can also damage the parts of your business (and your life) that they're NOT involved with.

Unfortunately, these toxic types can be really good at the technical parts of their jobs. But even those skills are not important enough to keep them around.

Instead they are:

  1. Unpleasant
  2. Unprofitable
  3. Able to destroy parts of your business they're not even involved with.

Looked at that way, it's a no-brainer, isn't it?

Which is why the Four-Word #3 is:

Don't Work With Assholes.
