"Learn to love life. Too many people complain and moan about their lives in this world rather then learning from their mistakes, moving on, and making things better. Everyone goes through tough times. Everyone makes mistakes and has flaws. Those that learn to live with them and/or improve upon them ultimately become better people. Learn to love life, because if you don't, life will learn not to love you."

You might be thinking, "cmon Bryan, whats this philosophy business, I came here to see your portfolio and skills". Well, that is true, but you did click the philosophy link, didn't you :), so that means you are mildly curious.
I have a philosophy for life and I have a philosophy for the web. My philosophy for the web is in a seperate post titled "Why Web Standards". Let me explain my other philosophy, and that is on life in general
I am a good hearted person. I believe that you should treat people the way you expect to be treated. This means that I do my best to treat everyone I come in contact with respect. The rude and selfish, however, don't get this treatment. I believe that those who work hard will ultimately get the biggest payout.
I take great pride in my work, whether its personal work at home, or whether its business work on the web. Its important to me. It's important to love what you do. I love what I do for a living, I am passionate about it. If you can't have fun doing what you do for a living, then ultimately its going to cause you more stress as well as the employer you work for.
I also understand that family is the most important thing in life and nothing comes before family.
