Friedrich Nietzsche

what as per you is your best work

My best work is not something I can easily identify and say that it is the best of my efforts. I believe that my best work is the one that I am currently working on, for it is the one that I am constantly striving to improve and make better. It is the one that I constantly challenge myself with and push myself to the limits. It is the one that I have devoted my time, energy and resources to. It is the one that I have poured my heart and soul into. It is the one that I have taken risks with and pushed myself to be creative and innovative. It is the one that I am proud of and believe is worth the effort. It is the one that I can look back on and be satisfied with the results. It is the one that I will be remembered for and will be talked about long after I am gone. It is the one that I will be proud to have called my best work. So, while I cannot definitively say what my best work is, I can say that whatever I am currently working on is my best work. I will continue to strive to make it better, and I have no doubt that the result will be something I will be proud of."
