SOME THINGS ARE BETTER LEFT UNSAID
Like I was reading about Ray William Johnson and the beef he has with Maker Studios CEO Danny Zappin. Johnson is like, "Zappin is a criminal." Zappin is like, "F*** you, prepare for war."
Whoa! You don't have to say everything that comes into your mind. It's just not necessary or productive.
Two of the most successful Youtubers are not happy with the money and the success. It's just never enough, right? Wah, right? Gimmeabreak.
Have you ever found a disgusting, wiggling bug in the shower drain? How about on the wet sidewalk outside your home? How about in your salad at a fancy restaurant? Did you feel compelled to hold it in your hand and show it to everyone. "Look, everyone," you might say, "Look what climbed out of my ear." See, if you do it right (well, er, wrong) you can make yourself and everyone else miserable. But is that what you really want to do?
You were expecting a hot shower or a nice meal or a quiet walk to the mailbox. Not this time, buddy. You were expecting earwax, right? But you got some sort of alien mind-control brain eater bug in your ear. But rather than just having your day spoiled, you decided to spoil it for everyone. That's bad.
Sometimes things don't go your way. It's as simple as that. One day you wake up to find that your Youtube Channel is being taken over by a crazed felon. Or one day you wake up to find that your best client, the one you pampered like a favored grandchild, has slandered you and run off telling others tales of anger and harsh words. Them's the breaks in the big world. Move on. Or you can stand around and squabble publicly like children.
Those guys can both get the lawyers busy. For the rest of us, perhaps it's a lesson in professionalism and good business dealing. I think the lesson is -- success and happiness can be mutually exclusive.
