Something I can’t stop thinking about is, well, myself. I’ll admit. I’ve become (or maybe have always been) entirely self-absorbed. I’m not proud to say that, but I don’t think I’m merely speaking for myself here. Let’s be honest: all of us are a little self-absorbed to come capacity. Every morning when I wake up, Continue reading

Let’s talk about the realities of growth.
