“My hand upholds you. Wherever you may fall, you will always fall into my hands. I am present even at the door of death. Where no one can accompany you further, and where you can bring nothing, even there I am waiting for you, and for you I will change darkness into light.” -John Paul II
“A woodpecker can tap twenty times on a thousand trees and get nowhere, but stay busy. Or he can tap twenty-thousand times on one tree and get dinner.”- Seth Godin
Lesson learned: Don’t to peck at a thousand trees if you really want to find results. Peck at one, and peck with all you’ve got. You may find dinner, or you may not. But odds are, all you ever wanted was a reason to peck with all you’ve got.
If they can find someone who can make a video like this i have trust in them. Or well, no i don’t but I really really enjoy all of this new UI stuff all over the place. It makes me excited to see what will actually get produced. I hope it all does. It looks beautiful. Enjoy. Or if you have time go here and watch it in high resolution. Its worth it.
