How to be a genius

man ...i wokeup too little early today it's 5.30am ....but looking at my gf's face on ichat makes me happy ....but she's not ..she has been sick ..for a while now and she hasnt get enough sleep too though ......today ..i got to meet up with some minister..(dato seri ................) for work ....yah ...everything ready all done ..all set to go ......and i just need to be sure that i dont forget my brain...

how to be a genius ....for designers out there ...my tips to you ..

1) Have a great, or horrible, family.....(it would work on both situations ..because designers dont care)

2) Be obsessed with work...... (what designer isn’t?)

3) Have emotional or other serious problems...... (clients can do that to you)

4) Don’t strive for fame in your own lifetime....(big time ya'll)

Perhaps it’s best not to care what the world thinks,..... or what labels it gives you......, and that independence is the true seed for making great things worthy of........, someday, earning you the moniker genius.........

to focus on the making........, the thinking, the creating seems the best way,....... leaving it to the world to decide........., long after you’re gone, what value your work had.......
as long as you’re free enough to keep making and creating in ways that satisfy your own personal ambitions......, or perhaps the tastes of a handful of fans, you’re doing much better than most people on this planet are.....haha.

so ....to me ...genius aims or not, it’s good advice for living a creative life....-oneday-

here are some cool creative thinking ...cool art direction and good advertising agency too ...
