A Man Who Haunts Me My grandmother lives in the country near a large pond with brown, murky water and a small property crowded with trees. I dread visiting my grandma’s house because I usually have to go into the den where memories of my grandfather make me feel depressed. When I walk in to my grandma’s house, I am forced to pass through the den where my grandfather spent most of his time, and unpleasant memories begin swirling in my head. This small, dark room is stuffed with a worn out, brown sofa and a brown, fake-leather loveseat, but all I see is the old, lumpy chair that was my grandfather’s. Even though it has been re-covered in an itchy, tweed fabric, his chair stills emits a musty odor. I never dared to sit in the old man’s chair because he used it like a throne to rule the lives of everyone in the house.

1. If you are not sure, don't do it. There are people who are very offended by what I would think of as even mild obscenities. As a result of having students pull me aside in early in my career, and ask me not to swear (I swore a lot in class when I was a brand new professor), I now rarely swear unless I am quoting someone when I am teaching executives or Stanford students. The one big exception is when I say the name of my book, The No Asshole Rule, or teach a session on it, as it is impossible…
