1. Identify idiots early. The sooner you can identify an idiot, the sooner you
can start to protect yourself from them.

2. Don't try to change idiots. Idiots are not going to change, so don't waste
your time and energy trying to do so.

3. Don't take idiots personally. Idiots are not attacking you personally, they
are just being idiots.

4. Set boundaries with idiots. Don't let idiots into your life if you don't have
to.

5. Don't argue with idiots. It's a pointless exercise.

6. Don't try to explain yourself to idiots. They won't understand.

7. Don't try to reason with idiots. They are not reasonable people.

8. Don't try to please idiots. They are impossible to please.

9. Don't expect idiots to appreciate you. They don't have the capacity to do so.

10. Don't let idiots ruin your day. They are not worth it.

11. Don't become an idiot yourself. It's easy to do, but it's important to
remember that there is no excuse for bad behavior.

12. Learn to laugh at idiots. It's the best way to cope with them.

13. Don't take yourself too seriously. Idiots will try to make you feel bad
about yourself, but don't let them.

14. Remember that you are not alone. Everyone has to deal with idiots at some
point in their lives.

15. Be kind to yourself. Dealing with idiots can be stressful, so make sure to
take care of yourself.

Sutton's book is a humorous and insightful guide to dealing with idiots. It is a
must-read for anyone who has ever had to deal with a difficult person.

I hope these lessons help you to deal with idiots effectively and to protect
yourself from their negative influence.

This app is LOADED with RELEVANT, HELPFUL, AND EDUCATIONAL material. It is
creatively intellectual, yet minimal enough to not overstimulate and create a
learning block. I am exceptionally impressed with this app!

“

Sean Green

Great interesting short snippets of informative articles. Highly recommended to
anyone who loves information and lacks patience.

“

Shankul Varada

Best app ever! You heard it right. This app has helped me get back on my quest
to get things done while equipping myself with knowledge everyday.

“

Don’t look further if you love learning new things. A refreshing concept that
provides quick ideas for busy thought leaders.

“

Giovanna Scalzone

Brilliant. It feels fresh and encouraging. So many interesting pieces of
information that are just enough to absorb and apply. So happy I found this.

“

Ghazala Begum

Even five minutes a day will improve your thinking. I've come across new ideas
and learnt to improve existing ways to become more motivated, confident and
happier.

“

Laetitia Berton

I have only been using it for a few days now, but I have found answers to
questions I had never consciously formulated, or to problems I face everyday at
work or at home. I wish I had found this earlier, highly recommended!

“

Jamyson Haug

Great for quick bits of information and interesting ideas around whatever topics
you are interested in. Visually, it looks great as well.
