Q: Dad, tell me about the Golden Rule.
A: Most people are familiar with “Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.” It is a simply stated lesson that will carry you through nearly every situation. There is another golden rule, however, that states “He who has the gold, makes the rule.” Understanding this also will get you through many situations, especially at work. If you can operate under both at the same time, you will be golden most of the time.
