Marquis David is the poetic name I chose to represent my current stage of self-discovery — a phase in which I decided not only to continue deepening my own journey, but also to share the insights and perspectives that have guided me and that I keep uncovering along the way.
The things I write — whether in e-books, essays, or social media posts — are meant for inspiration, and perhaps as a mirror, with the hope that they may, in some way, help others find or recover their own path.
My first publication, Give Up on Other People’s Dreams, is a gentle manifesto about releasing borrowed ambitions and returning to your genuine purpose.
The second e-book, The Art of Not Forcing Life, is about realizing that life is like a river, and that we live it better when we allow it to flow freely instead of trying to push its course.
I hope you enjoy these readings and find some inspiration in them.
With affection,
Davi Mendes
