Darkness is not the same as evil
A hurricane can’t be evil, nor can the universe
Approach the unsaid corners
How the sound of silence reverberates still
Don't research and write at the same time
Put down the shovel before you pick up the pen
Don’t fake it until you make it
It’s OK to be a work in progress
Limit your ratio of meta to reality
Hey kids, let's go outside already
Someone has to take notes
Or the meeting didn't happen, and I would like my time back
Stack sentences for clearer writing
Write line-by-line to clear your mind
Orient toward heartbreak
Heartbreak is evidence that your heart works at all
The waste is what works
With mild apologies to the Atlassian corporation
Tell your friends you love them
Because you do
Don't ask why
When it is time to ask, you will not need to
Find a new cliché
A blister-packed sandwich just ain't worth it
Do a little more than you should
Only because you can, not because you have to
Honor your opponent
May you be blessed with the gift of a rival
First fix, then rename
Before you turn on that labelmaker, pick up a wrench
Routine is doing what you want
You need a rhythm before you can break into a solo
Make your process recite-able
To do what you say, you must be able to say what you do
All words sow seeds of sway
Everything means something, even if you don't know what it is
Your days are numbered
Don't say I didn't warn you
Don’t worry about conversations before you have them
What matters is that you’re communicating
