Maybe its the desire to be at the cutting edge of creativity and technology that drives us. Maybe it is the longing to do something truly great and be noticed. Maybe it is rebellion against boredom and menial jobs that don't challenge. Maybe it is that we are constantly on the run, trying to keep up with the world around us and we never stop to ask why. Or maybe we just love advertising. Being an expert. Helping people grow and get their word out. Creating something that actually makes an impact or a difference.
