Step 16 - Why Rules Anyway?

How To Double Your Way To A Million In 28 Steps
Rules are good for certain conditions.

One is as I described in my Blog Post...Competition.

When people compete they need ground rules that everyone must follow for it to be fair and equitable, for there to be a measurable outcome of comparison.

But since this isn't a competition then the rules are irrelevant.

Rules are important when people need to work together, you need rules for Unity. If you have rules and others do not follow them, then trust breaks down between parties thus unity and cohesion goes out the window.

If you are trying to have unity without a common set of rules you end up with chaos and bedlam.
But since the doublers are all individuals, teamwork is not a factor. Being unified in a common goal is irrelevant, then the rules do not apply for these purposes.

The rules are good for comparison of two or more separate sources apart from competition. If it is useful to compare progress, improvement or other quantifiable measurements then a set of ground rule or criteria need to be adhered to in order that an accurate comparison can be made.

Rules limit factors that need to be judged for an outcome.

But again, since no measurements need to be made and random factors do not have to be quantified then the rules are irrelevant.

I think in this case the Rules are good for establishing a foundation upon which to judge the consequences of self-discipline which is a large factor when dealing with the area of financial success.

The Rules, whether those directed in the report or those established by each individual, provide a point of reference or more so a guard rail that keeps the candidate driving on the road and between the lines. They help to keep the person on the straight and narrow way to success.

Humans have a tendency to get easily distracted. Without a good solid set of disciplinary rules, when a pretty shiny bobble subtly manifests itself, they are off to pursue it.

The rules help keep us in line and on target.
