— genuinely doing art for art's sake
— giving weakens the resistance
The future of an organization depends on motivated human beings selflessly contributing gifts of emotional labor

Shippers
A linchpin always ships, regardless of what happens. He knows the only way to create a masterpiece
is to finish it.

become a Linchpin?

You will first have to decide
to be one and then slowly work your way.
