Start Up You: "Its New Years. You Suck."


FAKE GRIMLOCK is an internet sage; a straight shooting internet sensation of few words, who I am honored to have met and now unashamed to say I follow!

He has ushered in the New Years with advice on how to think of yourself as a start up!


I think his best advice is here:
BE AWESOME IS BURN WITH FIRE THAT MAKE EVERYONE WARM. BURN FOR JUST YOU IS BE ASSHOLE.

FORGET YOU. BE AWESOME FOR WORLD. BE AWESOME FOR SELF HAPPEN ON OWN.
So, in 2012 lets do as he says in his conclusion:
YOU READY. PEEL AWAY FAIL PAINT, STRAP AWESOME ENGINE TO BACK, GRAB WIN CAPACITORS AND ROCKET INTO SKY ON STACK OF WIN.

ONLY THING THAT STOP YOU IS YOU. GET OUT OF OWN WAY, SET COURSE TO AWESOME.

STARTUP YOU.


FAKE GRIMLOCK, the master of words....few words!
