Sample: Insight Is Not Enough

This is a sample entry used only to build and test the skeleton site. It is not finished writing and should be removed or replaced before launch.

People often assume that once they understand why they do something, the behavior will change. Sometimes it does. More often the insight arrives and the pattern continues anyway, now accompanied by the added frustration of knowing better.

This placeholder essay demonstrates a second entry so the recent-items list has something to show and so the newest-first ordering can be verified. Its published date is earlier than the featured sample, which lets the ordering be checked at a glance.

Nothing here needs to be read closely. It is scaffolding.
