well, to be honest, to believe that one might have a capability to do great work, and then on a consistent basis, never quite get there,and deliver at that level is maddening.
and then to read about this guy, who basically really did just believe in himself for starters, and then coupled that with hard hard work.
for me, that is a big fat clip around the earhole, to shut up with the self doubt, and knuckle down.
So, yeah, he's a lucky guy, and really great that he can be so humble and respecting of great collaborative partners.
i think to be so low down on this ladder, the collaborators don't always share some same ambitions, which leaves one with this tussle.You know, just forget about collaborators and try go it alone, or keep trying to to coax blood from this stone (lol)
i guess either way results equal effort. but thanks very very much for posting such a brilliant piece. anymore like that, please point me towards them.this site is so big, you can get a little lost searching.and thanks for asking !
