15 lessons from How To Deal With Idiots: (and stop being one yourself) by Robert I. Sutton:

1. Identify idiots early. The sooner you can identify an idiot, the sooner you can start to protect yourself from them.

2. Don't try to change idiots. Idiots are not going to change, so don't waste your time and energy trying to do so.

3. Don't take idiots personally. Idiots are not attacking you personally, they are just being idiots.

4. Set boundaries with idiots. Don't let idiots into your life if you don't have to.

5. Don't argue with idiots. It's a pointless exercise.

6. Don't try to explain yourself to idiots. They won't understand.

7. Don't try to reason with idiots. They are not reasonable people.

8. Don't try to please idiots. They are impossible to please.

9. Don't expect idiots to appreciate you. They don't have the capacity to do so.

10. Don't let idiots ruin your day. They are not worth it.
