Or an inspirational quote, or anything you can imagine as the first slide in a PowerPoint about working smarter, or written in cursive font over a photo of someone cycling in the rain.

Your creation must look right and sound right, and yet remain so shatteringly banal and devoid of utility that it could not possibly help or inspire anyone in any context. If you deploy it in conversation, a listener should go ‘wow, that’s deep’, and then five seconds to a minute later, go ‘wait, what?’.

Credit yourself. Points are deducted if you accidentally come up with a real saying.
