Stop Complicating, Start Simplifying
People complicate things to justify their inaction and support their excuses.
Complexity is the enemy of execution.
Stop adding more when less will do.
"Knowledge is about piling up facts. Wisdom lies in simplification" Martin Fischer
Eliminate the unnecessary so the necessary may speak.
What have you added to the facts?
Identify the essential & eliminate the rest.
