There are a few problems with this. One, you're not going to be able to portray the same effect of the maze when the logo is scaled down. The orange/black lines are a bit convoluted here, as well.

Stick with one text weight, or at least make them closer to a similar weight. Super thin to super bold isn't working for me.

This idea needs a new direction, I feel. I don't know if making the maze lines larger is the solution, but you should always consider making a logo that can withstand being shrunk down to business card size, as well as being large for signage and billboards.

I like the idea of this, but I think the maze pattern needs to follow the shape of the person more closely, tather than as a fill pattern that simply cut off by the border. Make a maze out of the man!

You'll run into issues of it being maybe too detailed to reproduce when printed small, but I think you're on to something.

I don't like the type. But let that come later. Work on the symbol and the type can wait. Focus on one thing at a time.

Yes, if you can make this so that it is a maze, and a solvable one, you have pretty much the best memo pads ever.

Way too complicated. You need to simplify this drastically.

Put a square around it, and fill the square with a maze, lines further apart. Have the man within it as an island, the maze goes around him.

Spacing the lines out further give less detail, putting the maze in a box rather than in the man gives you more room to draw it.
