YOUR DAILY INSIGHT // As Told By: Steve Jobs

By this time, you've seen the news saturated with words about one thing: Steve Jobs' passing.

Instead, let's redirect and focus on words left to us from the undisputed visionary himself.

And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.
