In the capable, Jacobs said he can't build his finger on what makes a handful talented designers succeed while some blog writers do not.
"I don't know, " she or he said. "I try to concentrate and so... do the best job I can. On top of that I'm not always perfect — actually , I'm never perfect. But I the best I can and I give It a all. I don't give up. Though I'd like to. "
