Be Buddha. Just be. No envy or desire.
Really. That’s probably the one time you know you are truly sucessful or happy. You do not want to be anybody else.
Mind you, as a marketeer’s target market, you’re a disaster.
“the New All Improved Gizmo makes you happier! Oh, wait.… forget it.”
God wants to be Steve Jobs
gapingvoid: everything is connected Great post over at gapingvoid. Here is what hugh has to say: “Steve Jobs wants to be Bono. Bono wants to be John Lennon. John Lennon wants to be Jesus. Jesus wants to be God. God…
Bombs away!
I don’t think God wants to be Steve Jobs, he wants to be Hugh.
buh + duh = buddah
sometimes smarter is real means simpler.
Is this career advice ?
And who does Bill Gates want to be?
maybe he (whichever he) wants to be a nobody.
nobody wants to be a woman.
Yea listen to that Bono iPod tune:
All of this, all of this can be yours.
Sounds about right, at least to my ears– and it’s the first viable explanation as to why Jobs has his head six feet up U2s ass. Out of the entire music scene, he allies himself with the messiah complex that can’t stop swearing on TV.
If the glove fits..
not how I see. I like Jobs. None of the players are doing the two step shuffle. The record companies are in the deal, too, or? And who else is sitting at the table? Don’t just watch this from a business standpoint. Look, learn, and listen.
uno dos tres…catorce
I might add:
look at the outside OF the box
the bizcard reminds me of an infamous comment from a guy I worked with:
“What’s wrong with it Ted?”
“Fuckin’ fucker’s fuckin’ fucked”
