Patsis' Rules:

1. Laughter is good for the pancreas

2. If you work off your e-mail you're working off other people's priorities

3. Stay calm; never lose your temper - many a battle was won with a cool head

4. Stress cannot be defeated intellectually - action is the antidote - exercise, meditation and hobbies. It also helps to re-frame your thinking.

5. Get the vision right. Your team can create the strategy

6. Never believe the first report!

7. Nothing is as bad as it seems. It's really just an inconvenience

8. Shared values are paramount. Weed out the "star" who doesn't share the values

9. Never take your self-concept from your job

10. Without self discipline nothing is possible

11. If you expect your friends to be perfect you won't have any

12. When it comes to your family, ignore your own needs

13. Just because you got the job doesn't mean you're a leader

14. Fear is real and not necessarily bad. Don't take its counsel and don't let it affect your behavior

15. First seek to understand, then to be understood

16. Always have a dog (or 2!)
