Given any rule, there are different ways how people interpret it for themselves and for others.
For example:
Consider the rule : "You should not drink alcohol"
This rule could be seen in 4 ways from personal perspective.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.
I drink - OK
My spouse drinks - NOT OK
Hypocrisy. They do everything they want, but object when others do it
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
2.
I drink - OK
My spouse drinks - OK
Happy go lucky carefree people. Lets enjoy together type of people.
But nevertheless, they break the rules.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
3.
I drink - NOT OK
My spouse drinks - OK
Idealist. People who do not object if others do it, but they themselves would not do it . (They tend to be inactive sometimes)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
4.
I drink - NOT OK
My spouse drinks - NOT OK
Mahatmas. People who want to bring positive change to the society. (But sometimes could end up being extremist)
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Which category do you belong to ?
Now, look at other rules in your life and see if you still are in the same category.
consider the rules like
- You can party late night
- You should be honest
- You should not abuse anyone
- You should follow the traffic rules
Please do add your comments, if you have any thoughts on the above.
