Too many people think the grass is greener somewhere else but grass is green where you water it, remember that.

Be as you wish to seem.

My favourite Nietzsche quote of all time https://t.co/Pbb9W8ABCD

Writing converts your ideas from vague to bad. But that's a step forward, because once you can see the brokenness, you can fix it.

"What is the worst that will happen if this does not get done?"
Eliminate all but the disasters.

—Kevin Kelly in Excellent Advice for Living
