I feel like there are a lot of this type of article floating around, these "THE ONLY GREAT RULES OF LIFE" manuals. This one is a lot better than the ones that I've read in the past though, for a few main reasons. It is well written. It seems like there are a ton of these that are supposed to be motivating but end up just being overly aggressive and swear every other word in an attempt to strengthen their point. You know what I'm talking about. This one just relies on its content and presents it as it comes. Very easy to read. It's humble. It doesn't claim to know everything, it's just a few things that are generally applicable. It's not all-encompassing or anything; it's just a genuine proposition to the reader to try and apply these few concepts. And I had several other reasons but they have left my brain. But this really is a lot better than the majority of these and it's just kind of soothing and easy. I would definitely read this to my non-existent children (or at least try and teach them similarly). You are a wise man! Good luck with the kids someday!
