Andrea's
Favorite Rule
by Andrea
Waltz
One of my favorite "fun"
books (not "biz" books) is 'Olivia Joules and the Overactive
Imagination' by Helen Fielding; the same writer who did the Bridget
Jones Diary series. The book is nothing but silly and fun - we get to
watch the main character, Olivia - desperate for a life of mystery,
intrigue, and love - actually stumble into it, getting the life she's
been dreaming of. It's Bridget Jones meets James Bond for
women.
Olivia is a great character and I fell in love with a list she calls
upon throughout the book called, "Rules for Living." These rules span
all facets of a woman's life including the very important Rule #3: Never change a
hair cut or color before an important event.
I can personally attest to this rule having broken it myself. This rule
seems obvious but it's easy to ignore and you will regret not following
it. I am still paying the price until this very day. (A story for
another time.) But then there is Rule #2. My favorite. It's
the one I knew deep down but was reminded of it and I have gone back to
this rule over and over and over in my life. Here it is:
Olivia Joules' Rule for Living #2: No one
is thinking about you. They're thinking about themselves, just like you.
It doesn't require much explanation and I bet that deep down you knew
this one too. Remember it! Go back to it over and over. Remember this
Rule every single time you want to do something different, something
NEW, something for YOU, something against type, CRAZY,
BOLD, COURAGEOUS, something your friends or family won't like or
approve of... Anything.... except of course change a hair cut or color
before an important event.

"I
have a rebellious nature, and I've always had it. So, when I heard,
"No," I would immediately begin scheming to figure out how I'd get
beyond that "No."
