The First Rule of Fight Club

Everybody knows the first rule of Fight Club. DON'T TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB.

That should also be the first rule of friendship, the first rule of marriage, and more than anything, the first rule of business.

I can never understand why any time I discuss a business idea, no matter how big or small, my potential partners fly off and start blabbing to any one who will sit still. 

The best way to fuck your deal - is to TALK about your deal before it's inked.  I've seen bands blow recording contracts, friends lose job offers, and businesses that never were - all because someone started proselytizing and trying to sound like a big shot.

Keep your trap shut. Let things happen organically. Blab all you want when you've made your first million on the idea.

Until then,
DON'T TALK ABOUT FIGHT CLUB!
