>> You get to choose what games to play in life, and how to play them Absolutely. But you don't get to change the rules of the game you choose. You can absolutely have your own rules to your own game. But naturally you can't expect others to play by those rules unless they want to. My expectation is that I'm happy to be flexible with the rules, but I've figured out what game I want to play. I'd make a terrible employee so I chose the "own business" game. I'm not into excessive control so I chose the "hire good people" game. My recommendation is to figure out the big things, and not sweat the small stuff. Be honest, but not overly picky.
