Are you loved, or are you useful?

All things in your life are potentially traps. 

The hardest to detect are disguised as things that serve you. 

 An amusing paradox: the certainty that comes with making radical uncertainty the foundation of one's worldview.

 I didn't choose my own survival lightly. One almost never does. 

 Both the doomer and the rational optimist will turn out to be right.

The question is: which does one want to be?

Embracing kaizen is the first kaizen.

Modern vampires do not drink blood. Instead, they seek to make someone not giving them what they want, both what is within their power to do for themselves and otherwise, a moral failing on the part of the one imposed upon.

How has putting off the better because it isn't the best been working out for you?

Removing people from your life whose time is cheap makes a lot of things better. 

(Check for your own reflection in that statement before agreeing.)
