Three Rules for Every Politician to Embrace
1 Know your own narrative, both affirmatively and adversely.
a. First thing to do before becoming a candidate is to have opposition research done on yourself.
b. Understand every time a potential voter, a constituent asks a question, there is actually only one answer they are looking for.
2. What are you going to do for me.
a. Do not surround yourself with just yes men/women.
3. Always have worthwhile contrary opinions voiced around you before making decisions.
a. Being surrounded by sycophants and bootlickers will create blind spots and provide an overly inflated value of self-worth.
