A Quote by Steve Pavlina
Understand that relationships are more important than contracts. Business deals are relationships between people. The signed piece of paper is important, but it's merely the result of the relationship, not the cause. If the relationship crumbles, the contract won't save you, although it could be very lucrative for your lawyer.

I don't think your relationship with your parents is that important. Some people never know their parents. I don't think your relationship with your friends are important.

You can't be dropping food to hang with someone else. You need to strike up an agreement with it.
