What if simple were right for me?

Do you sense the world is more complicated than you like? Do you feel compelled to make things more complex than you think necessary? 

When you do a presentation at work, do you make it the simplest, cleanest, to-the-point version? Or do you feel obliged to add all the bells and whistles? When you write an essay for school, do you feel you have to include the most difficult sounding words and concepts? When you find people you like, do you try to impress them with how much you know?

Nothing wrong with complex if it's fun, easy, feels light, and works for you. And if it doesn't work, ask "What if simple were right for me?" Are you willing to be aware of what works for you — simple, complex, or in between — and choose that?

How much fun could you have by functioning elegantly: generating the greatest result with the least effort?
