As a personal rule, If I don't get kicked in the face at least every two weeks, it means I'm not growing.

If that's what helps you grow, then I hope you get all the kicks needed for you to grow as much as you like.

Life and death themselves have kicked me in the face hard enough, that no further kicks are needed in this lifetime from any keyboard warriors in order to inspire the full flowering of my business potential.
