101 rules? Too many. I vastly prefer not a rule but THE life challenge with thanks to Mary Oliver:

"Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?"

these 100 rules are missing an important one. step back, and simplify. these rules are a result of overthinking which is something to avoid.

far simpler rules have been laid out numerous times in the classics.

such as: the golden rule of ethics, ie, dont do unto others what you dont want done to you, and the serenity prayer etc.
