Legal Cheating

The level playing field in business is dead...in fact, it probably never existed. It was a myth perpetrated by those who wanted to blind-side their competition with artificial 'rules'. There are no rules in the game of business...only what's legal and ethical and what's not. The reality is, if you're cleverer than your opposition they will always feel like you 'cheated' to win the deal; because you thought of an angle, a twist, an interpretation that never even occurred to them.
This why they are always screaming, "It's not fair!" Of course it isn't! Who said business was meant to be fair? The winners in life are always one step ahead. Sure, occassionally they over-step the mark of ethical practice and the legal system has to adjust - seems the laws and rules are always playing 'catch-up'. However, within the bounds of what's ethical, there is always scope for innovative methods of giving yourself the edge. And, your competition will always cry 'foul'. Ignore them...they just wish they'd thought of it first!
