The biggest killer of success is success.

(The fear of failure grows in direct proportion to what you have got to lose.)

  • Bigger is always worse

  • Innovation leads to less innovation

  • Growth leads to death

If you think you disagree, just add (ultimately) to the end of each of the above.

Such is Life.
