Thank you means two things. There is the "thank you" that I say when you have been reading my mind, pushing the perfect buttons, saying exactly the right thing at exactly the right time. This is heartfelt, but it is also selfish, in that it is about my narrative and no one else's. And then…
The person you are is directly related to the five people you spend the most time with and your role models. Examine your friends and role models. If they are not in line with who you want to be, then something needs to change. The same goes for the books you read, the TV shows…
In the Industrial Revolution, it used to be that media houses were only owned by big agencies, doing all the marketing work for other big companies.
