Self Set Rules

I stumbled upon something upon another blog that sounded kind of interesting called The Bitch Club, it sounded like the type of thing I might be able to get on bored with and I considered submiting my blog, after reading thier rules I thought I might stand a chance at getting accepted, but alas I shall not, because it has always been one of my rules not to join anything, no matter what it be, any sort of club, orginization, order, regligous group, etc..., I stay free lance and free style unattached, a rouge and an outsider feeling completely free of having to conform to anyones rules and guidelines, and I have very recently learned the great importance of not breaking ones own rules, that is the overall point of this post. To stree the importance of not breaking the rules you set up for yourself.

I think we all have them, standanards, guidelines, rules, that we set upon ourselves, things we tell ourselves we will not do, I have a few, and sometimes in some situations it might be tempting to break these rules, or bend them, sometimes we might try to make excuseses and find reasons why this particular situation is an exception or different so it would not really count, but you are still twsiting your rules, and that is a big no no, remeber there was a reason why you set those rules to start with, and if you let yourself break them, in the end it will come back around on you.

I say this because I was in a sitution in which I broke one of my rules, I tried to tell myself that it did not really count, that the circumstances were speical or different in this case, so I was not really breaking the rule, but I was, and now I am paying the price for it, it seems. So I cannot let myself make that mistake again, I must hold myself from here on to the rules I set for myself no matter how harmless or tmepting it might seem to break the rule.
