You're What You Think

Our thoughts hold incredible power. The way we think shapes the way we experience the world and how we interact with it. In essence, you are what you think. Suffering, for example, often stems from wrong thinking in some direction. When we allow negative or misguided thoughts to dominate our minds, they inevitably lead us to pain and discomfort. This suffering is not merely a consequence of external circumstances but rather a reflection of the inner turmoil caused by our thought patterns. Many of us believe that our thoughts are private and hidden from the outside world. However, this isn't entirely true. Over time, our thoughts crystallize into actions and habits.

These innovations not only revived Apple but also set new standards in the tech industry. Handling difficult situations in life is not easy. Let's try to view setbacks as a catalyst for reinvention. By embracing challenges and using them as opportunities to in

Emotion by Design

Be empathic and curious To develop your “vision advantage” in brand marketing, which involves perceiving and leveraging insights others might overlook, two crucial traits are essential: empathy and curiosity. Empathy involves understanding others’ perspectives, feelings, and needs. Diversify your team by including individuals from underrepresented groups to gain a broader worldview and enrich your creative process. An example is Nike’s Equality campaign, which addressed the injustice faced by Black Americans. Curiosity fuels creativity by encouraging you to explore unconventional sources of inspiration. Cultivate this trait by starting a visual journal to capture inspiring images, planning trips around seeking inspiration, and sharing your experiences with your team. Nike’s team practices curiosity through excursions to observe other creative experts. By embracing empathy and curiosity, you can craft compelling stories that resonate deeply with your audience and distinguish your brand
