For those who has been following my blog, thank you for reading my thought and being supportive. I will keep working on my words, so I could better express my opinions. May God bless all of us. Last, show you guys a interesting video from Jeff Dunham on youtube, and wish the laughter stays with you all 2012.

Get Your Company A Speaker

Events and media have been the most well know marketing tools so far. Marketing representative utilize different media to present their product to consumers. Events are held for introducing new projects. However, they all focus on introducing the unique selling point of products; those obvious ponts. Mobile devices, computers and other electronic emphasis on tech specs when advertise. Service provider such as hotels and resorts focus on restaurants type, room size and design. However none have get someone who can embrace the product with a story that can inspire people to pursuit a belief; to believe that the product is something they need and always wanted.

The success of Apple was built by thousands of Apple employees, but known through one person, Steve Jobs. Sadly, none has learned from him, and understand the key for Apple’s well known success.

Whenever he was on product launching, he was always selling a dream, not the product. He explained his dream again and again as a story. He linked this dream of changing the way technology was with Apple's new product. “We have reinvented the phone”, he said while introducing iPhone. We can easily felt his belief through those words, and were influenced. Their advertisements concentrated on the meaning behind the design instead of explaining the tech specs. He has built a belief in us, and made us willingly to spend more for Apple’s product.

It is always much effective while inspiring people to do something instead of rewarding them to act. Announcing all those figures behind the product is consider as rewarding the consumer for their action to purchase. Tell them a story and involve them into such story can motivate them to go after the product. To sell a story, one needs a great speaker; a speaker who can influence people through words. Start searching for those talents within your establishment and utilize them wisely. 

Don't tell me words don't matter.

What would you do? part 2

This video was shared by my friend via Facebook. Again reminds us to stand for those needs help. Let's focusing on doing the right things instead of only doing things right.

What would you do?

We, people who claim living in liberal city. We educated our kids not to bully. We complain no one gives a hand when things happen to our family or us. But what have we done for others when they indeed need our support?

I was shared with the attached youtube video, and feel sorry for us who enjoy freedom in our life. We become disconnect with things around us. We focus only on those concerns us. We care only for no one. We stand for no one. The worst, we even scare to stand for our own belief and integrity.

We need to wake up. We need to change. We need to start caring again.

Learn from our younger generation

Through TED, I have got to learn about Adora Svitak, a great young author from America. When I called her young, I mean it. She is only 14. I watched her speech in TED, and was totally blown away. I would strongly encourage everyone to experience her powerful words from http://www.ted.com/talks/adora_svitak.html. The topic she has shared is “What can adults learn from kids?” and I found this topic extremely important to us, especially to our leaders.

Often we forgotten to listen and lend an ear to our younger one. We tend to share more of our experience to them instead of understand what’s in their mind. We lead them by our pass experience and expect their success. I would say at most of time, we have just simply ignored their voice. We forget the fact that the world has changed, and we did not catch up these changes better than our youths.

We communicate more rapidly through technology nowadays, which in fact we weren’t as good as our youngsters. We can learn more through Internet now, but we spend less time in comparison to our youngsters. We need to admit the fact that we can actually learn from our younger one in many aspects.

By empowering them to share their thought with us, we then get opportunities to learn. We can learn how to improve our management skill through Internet, and yet such learning can be costless. We can learn how to better communicate with others through technology, and again many of these tools are free. Through exchange ideas, we can identify much efficient ways to achieve result, and yet with lower price.

Lend an ear to our next generation, and allow them to share their opinions with us. Allow them to achieve their need of supreme through this little action, and you may avoid them to obtain responsiveness through miss behaviors. We will be surprise with how much we can learn from our youth, and yet how much they would appreciate such interaction from us.

I want to be "happy"

I have found this picture from Internet, and feel like sharing with everyone. I am not a parent yet, but I was once a child. I understood how depress that is to have an adult tackle me down by their experience.

Time has past and things have changed. Whatever we have experience before will never stay the same. I have once heard a great saying, “the only certainty of this world is uncertainty”. Due to technology development, things change rapidly around us. What was seem unachievable before, might be easily performed at this century.

Motivation is something we need in this century. We need to allow our youngster to be more creative and to try on different things. We need to allow them to learn to make decision. Through making decision, one would learn to take responsibility and face the consequence behind.

Through motivation we empower our younger generation to grow, which will lead to a better future of our society. This will not only benefit the youth around us, but the entire human nation. Our creativity has lifted us to the current development. We need more of this practice by everyone.

Therefore, stop punch ourselves down by those experiences we gained from life. By enable ourselves to live outside of box, which never actually existed, will allow us a better life. A life John Lennon has mentioned, life of “Happiness”. We enjoy life with music, movie, literature, invention, and food. They are all results from creativity.
