“A designer knows he has achieved perfection not when there is nothing left to add, but when there is nothing left to take away.”<\/span>\n<\/p>\n — Antoine de Saint-Exupery<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<\/blockquote>\n \n<\/p>\n With a strict focus on our most urgent priorities, I must temporarily devote myself to creating a stronger and more stable business posture.\n<\/p>\n Click the “Archives” and browse a few of my past entries— January 2005 to September 2006.\n<\/p>\n From time to time I’ll continue to record my thoughts in a private book, just as I have done since 1971, because I concur with Harlan Hubbard in that I have always kept a journal for “myself changed and at a later time,” and, to use his words again, I would hope that I can someday resume this log as “a kind of memorial to the passing days.”\n<\/p>\n Until then, please do a few things for me…\n<\/p>\n • Don’t neglect your creative self.\n
\n• Read any Paul Watkins<\/a> book you can find.
\n• Ride a bicycle, just for fun.
\n• Visit Anacrusis<\/a>, Monday through Friday.
\n• Treat your body as your best investment.
\n• Put in a good word for Dixon Design<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n
