Peter's laws

• If anything can go wrong, fix it! (To hell with Murphy!)
• When given a choice, take both.
• Multiple projects lead to multiple successes.
• Start at the top and work your way up.
• Do it by the book… but be the author.
• When forced to compromise, ask for more.
• If you can’t beat them, join them, and then beat them.
• If it’s worth doing, it’s got to be done now!
• If you can’t win, change the rules.
• If you can’t change the rules, then ignore them.
• Perfection is not optional.
• When faced without a challenge, make one.
• “No” simply means begin again at one level higher.
• Don’t walk when you can run.
• When in doubt, THINK!
• Patience is a virtue, but persistence to the point of success is a blessing.
• The squeaky wheel gets replaced.
• The faster you move, the slower time passes, the longer you live!
• Bureaucracy is a challenge to be conquered with a righteous attitude, a tolerance for stupidity, and a bulldozer when necessary.
