The further you go/the older you get you realize less is more.

Friends- fewer but better.  Focusing, distilling, getting to the essence.  Trimming things down.  Older I get the more my instinct towards this.  Your biz needs to be in line w/ your temperament.  It needs to be suited to you and how you want to play this.

Taking time off- some of the best ideas come from the least expected places.  Wouldn't have come if I had kept grinding.  Changing the scenery, different frame of mind, pausing.

Get older- you have lived experience. 

Be guided by understanding yourself more.  Let it guide you.

Understand who you are and play the game you want to.  Challenge is not how best to play the game rather what game you want to play.  Choose the game you want to play.

There are no limits in life.
