They say the only certainties in life are death and taxes—but death may actually be the more straightforward of the two.

Life collects payment for every meaningful thing you claim to want. Stress is the tax on ambition. Failure is the tax on learning. Boredom is the tax on mastery. Sacrifice is the tax on meaning. Persistence is the tax on success. Discomfort is the tax on transforma...

You audited the avoidance. Now what?
