Fail to mention your intentions, fail to mention why..
Pay attention please.
He who lusts through life for excess in this world.
Dies a lonely man, careless of his soul.
Throwing caution to the wind with foolish ignorance.
You’re full of pride.
And in arrogance you can’t accept the nearing end of this short lived life.
Smile and give a toast, brag and boast.
Fool the world with all of your lies.
The parasite’s host never even knows.
Pull the wool over our eyes.
Walk the line and pay the price.
A pound of flesh for paradise.
Wear the wounds of your demise.
Fail to mention your intentions, fail to mention why.
The actions of your life contradict your words…
The path in which you walk is a vice of no remorse.
Washing conscience from the skin, claiming innocence.
Ignore the signs.
From cradle to grave, you chose to trade.
A pound of flesh for paradise.
Wear the wounds of your demise.

Eliminating Excess
Excess is more than is necessary or desirable. It is more than you need. So why not get rid of it? It weighs us down, holds us back, and takes up space. It prevents us from being greater than we are, from going to where we need to go.
For me Facebook and Twitter are excess, so I am eliminating them. Eradicating the excess can seem difficult, but it opens up so many more doors than it closes. What doesn’t help you, hinders you and should be eliminated.
Just one more thought. Anything more would just be excessive.
I have always looked up to Bruce Lee, and so I will leave you with his own words, written on the first page of Tao of Jeet Kune Do:
“Take what is useful and develop from there.”

Excessive Executive Pay
· During the severest academic year of the financial crisis, when Harvard’s endowment plunged $11 billion, Harvard Management Co. still remunerated its top five most highly paid employees more than $25 Million in total compensation. The highest compensated employee at the university that same year earned 180 times the average annualized wage of a unionized custodian on campus – a level of inequality surpassing that found among the largest US for-profit companies.
