Is this confusing?

Complexity creates confusion.
Confusion, in turn, creates even more complexity.

When you drift towards complexity, confusion is sure to follow. When you feel confused, it tells you that you have yet to find or trust simplicity.

The primary reason to avoid complexity, even when it looks attractive, is because of the confusion it breeds and the impact that mental misalignment has on your ability and willingness to do the work. Whatever potential you imagine might exist in complexity is better realized through simplicity.

Simplicity drives clarity.
Clarity, in turn, drives even more simplicity.

The time is now. Do the work.
