Life is a journey, and that journey is dynamically contrasted between horrible hills and valleys, but ever so often you arrive at a stream, and we rest, we have a drink from that stream. Refreshed and rested, we get u and continue the journey. Every change, every response to those changes, our failures, our derailment, and our triumphs, are all part of things we did, things we do each day. — We never know what the right decisions are, we make assumptions of outcomes, we make decisions based on information we have in the present, and we strategize, and we hope the results are favourable. …

When you enter any room, onto any stage, be comforted in the fact, that you are supposed to be there. Hopefully not a courtroom…at least, not as a defendant or perpetrator. — Gary V said, and I am paraphrasing here… He could spend all day, all year, speaking about all the things he sucks at. He chooses to speak about the things he’s good at. A lot of people tell themselves horrible things, think of themselves in awful ways, and ultimately become…

In life, if you can be anything, be you. — Drugs, in this context, is a metaphor, or an analogy… it can be anything that you use as a coping method. Sometimes, one must shamelessly engage the narcissist, have a good chat and then send it back to its cage. We often feel guilty about embracing ourselves because we are told to accommodate others, often leaving ourselves behind. The undeniable truth is, that no one gets out alive.

“I had a boss once who said that the creative process can always be made efficient-er, it just can’t be made efficient. And what he meant was, there are always parts of what creatives do that are stupid and ridiculous and wastes of time. If you’re smart, you can figure out what those are and eliminate them so you can focus on the stuff that is really useful.” — WFH and the Randomness That Drives Creativity by martin bihl

Coca-Cola serves as a good example of how product advertising changed over a forty-year period. When first introduced in the 1880s, the product was marketed as a medicine, with claims that it cured headaches, and that it “revived and sustained.” Seeking to build repeat business and brand loyalty, in the 1920s the company emphasized it as a refreshment and a “fun food”. Consumers demanding the cola at soda fountains placed pressure on store owners to stock the product or risk losing their business. Today Coca-Cola is one of the largest and most visible companies in the world thanks to its successful advertisement campaigns.

In a lot of ways, some professionals hold their positions for a very long time because they are unwilling to share their secrets. — However, there is a new model that comes by way of teaching, the new gold rush is education, practical and inspirational education. Where various professionals are sharing secrets, knowledge, and techniques, this model is highly sought after and some are handsomely paid for it.

The popular belief is that exercise burns fat, and we even verbalize this belief. But science, or more specifically biology says otherwise. — The methods by which we dispose of fat deposits are through different ways and I am sure being active can only help, and I am also sure how our individual bodies work, such as level of health and age may determine the speed at which we lose fat. We do…

I was living a fast life toeing many lines of what I can now only ask what if I had not made it? But this is not that story…This is about music, a world where brands form and merch was king. — The dream was always living that life forever Many years ago, before a blockchain, cryptocurrencies, and NFTs…and ultimately a time before the Covid-19 pandemic. In a time of bands, dodgy basements, live shows, sex, drugs, and wondering, “How are we going to get home?” …

How we ask questions is extremely important to how we find answers. I heard it said (I can’t remember where) that a good lawyer does not know all the answers but they know where to find them. — In the 1870s a new approach to football was introduced, no not that one, I am referring to soccer. Football tactics have evolved over the years and continue to do so. Early football games were largely based on physique instead of style, many years ago passing and team harmony was…
