Je suis comme je suis

Loen öösiti Marju Lauristini uut raamatut “Marjustini sajand” ja naudin vaikust, sest pere magab. Naudin aega iseendale ja inspiratsiooni, mida raamat mulle pakub. Minu endine õppejõud on lihtsalt nii inspireeriv inimene! Raamat meenutas mulle kui väga olin nautinud oma kommunikatsiooniõpinguid Tartu Ülikoolis ja endale üllatuslikul kombel eriti just kõige teoreetilisemaid aineid nagu Kaasaegse ühiskonna teooriad ning Meediasemiootika. Milline imeline ja uus teadmiste maailm minu ees avanes! Mõtlen, et ehk peaksin teoreetilistes kommunikatsiooniainetes enda teadmisi täiendama, kui see mulle nii suurt naudingut pakub. Semiootikas peaks mul isegi annet olema, kui professor Maarja Lõhmust uskuda. Tegelen ka eneseanalüüsiga. Facebooki suunatud reklaam tõi minuni ühe minu lemmikkirjaniku Elizabeth Gilberti veebiloengu pakkumise loovuse teemal. Uurisin lähemalt ning kuna see oli piiratud aja jooksul 70% soodsam, siis otsustasin kiirelt emotsionaalse ostu teha. Kui aga avastasin ku...

My entire life has been shaped by an early decision to reject the cult of artistic martyrdom, and instead to place my trust in the crazy notion that my work loves me as much as I love it - that it wants to play with me as much as I want to play with it - and that this source of love and play is boundless. - Elizabeth Gilbert - "Big Magic" Jordan Whitfield

The problem with first impressions isn't that they're not important (They are important! They're crucial!) but that we have no idea at all when first impression is going to occur. Not the first contact, but the first impression. That's why authenticity matters. Seth Godin "All Marketers are Storytellers" Ben Moore

I guess this is a secret superpower of the PR person — they absorb all the rejection for you, and pass along the successes. You hear nothing about the non-responses, you only hear about the hits. -- Josh Bernoff -- Fanny Rascle

Lasen ennast kanda uudishimul ja eks paistab, kuhu see mind viib. As Steve Jobs said, “   You can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. " Jakub Kapusnak

Kuidas olla õnnelikum ? Eva Koff   lapsepõlvest Sara Blakely õppetundidest ja ettevõtlusest Steve Jobs interview for Wired in 1995: Creativity is just connecting things. When you ask creative people how they did something, they feel a little guilty because they didn’t really do it, they just saw something. It seemed obvious to them after a while. That’s because they were able to connect experiences they’ve had and synthesize new things. And the reason they were able to do that was that they’ve had more experiences or they have thought more about their experiences than other people. Unfortunately, that’s too rare a commodity. A lot of people in our industry haven’t had very diverse experiences. So they don’t have enough dots to connect, and they end up with very linear solutions without a broad perspective on the problem. The broader one’s understanding of the human experience, the better design we will have. Michael Simmonsi artiklist Forbes'ile
