The Trickster

The rule

You may have learned that rules exist for good reasons, that cleverness used to get around them is manipulation, and that a good person follows the system even when it plainly isn't working.

Traditionally echoed in Hermes, who stole Apollo's cattle on the day he was born and talked his way out of it, becoming the god of boundaries and those who cross them, and in Loki of Norse myth, whose mischief both saved and undid the gods.

For you

Which rule in your life have you been obeying long after it stopped making sense?
