Better To Avoid Superlatives.
smileifyourewinning: ““Don’t try to be the best _____ of the year. It’s impossible. Instead try to be the best _____ of the day. Then repeat 365 times.”” — - Alex Bogusky Nah, don’t try to be the best anything, at any point. That’s what gets you into trouble every time. Just execute.

Vimeo Sued By Capitol Records Over Lip Dubs  →
