Will you accept the unwritten rules in order to succeed?

In a culture rich with unwritten rules, some choose to break them, firmly believing that success is a matter of personal perception. For these individuals, authenticity is essential, even if it means violating social or legal norms. They don't feel excluded for being who they are; rather, they see the results of their approach as proof that their unique style works. Although the journey is challenging and successes may seem slow to arrive, when they do, they are solid and authentic. This indicates that they are setting their own path. Those who adhere to unwritten rules often feel envy toward those who dare to defy conformity, a deplorable sentiment that reflects their own dissatisfaction.

The possibility of compromising personal integrity and immoral behavior was pointed to in the contest topic outline. In that case I would not hesitate to walk away. But if it meant simply "out of the box norms" .... I agree with you.. go for it.
exactly! Thanks have a nice day🌈
The point is: is such an unwritten social rule fair or harmful? Second question that follows: what's the purpose behind that unwritten rule? So the answer to break or not, strongly depends on the reply of the first two😂😂😂😂
I understand what you mean, and I agree that it's important to assess whether unwritten rules are helpful or harmful.
In fact, it seems like we need an official 'Unwritten Rules' manual to know which ones to break consciously! 😀
However, perhaps the real fun lies in not having all the clear answers and in finding our own way to navigate the nuances.
And if life were too easy to understand, where would the excitement be? 🤣
🤣🤣🤣🤣
A scammer breaks rules and it must benefit otherwise not that many would do it to succeed fast.
The hardest about success is that it is only measured by personal standards. When is it we are successful which part of this success will still be a success in 10, 20, 35 years or if we die? Will everyone grieve and say: we will miss this successful banker or will they cry and think back, cherish the most beloved friend they had? Chasing for success out of envy, greed to look more successful... How long will that be? Will such a battle ever end? It sounds exhausting and a lost game at forehand. A lost game and waste of time and energy.
There are too many unwritten rules we follow out of habit, it limits the freedom to be creative. I also don't believe there's a need to stick to each one of them.
For sure the so called most successful ones never did. They lie, cheat, play dirty tricks to be that number one (while watching their back) live and let live is no part of their strategy. Like the idiom says: in love and war everything is accepted/allowed.

What does it mean? You end up bald? Perhaps a hairbrush is a better idea.

The question is always whether these unwritten rules (it is and remains nonsense: either they are rules, in which case they are written, or they are social expectations, a consensus of values or simply habit) make sense and correspond to your own values. Then you can follow them with a clear conscience - you don't always have to swim against the tide. But as soon as this is not the case, e.g. as soon as these unwritten rules are used manipulatively to promote certain behaviors, then...
Thank you for highlighting the importance of defining personal success and avoiding blindly following social rules and unethical behaviors.
