MAXIMS
A plan without a purpose is like a recipe without hunger.
One person’s enough might be too much for their neighbor.
The future is birthed from a series of nows.
Tactics often expire, but principles are timeless.
Everything that is easy today was once a struggle.
The desire for things is the problem, not the things themselves.
Anger is a symptom of broken expectations.
Hatred is merely love in disgust.
You are not in love—love is in you.
