Fail ForwardI didnt see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me.- Steve Jobs -

The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods in life8
