#4. When you make something, you make something else.
Not sure where I first heard this, so I can't attribute it to a source. Scientifically this would be the law of cause and effect-nothing happens in a vacuum. You may think that what you do, or don't do, today will not matter but it will have some sort of ripple effect. The intangible matter you displace will be replaced by other matter, intangible or otherwise.
#5. What others think of me is none of my business.
This may seem to be in conflict with the ideas espoused by Dworkin in his book, Justice for Hedgehogs, but I aspire to this rule, used in moderation and under a strict requirement of good faith. This means I can't invoke this rule because I want to do something to piss you off. I have to have a clear conscience as to my motivation to act.
