Our body is just... perfect

Has the thought "our body is just... perfect," ever crossed your mind?

Well, I have thought about it many many times, and they usually begin like this:
  1. Paper cut!!... oh well, I'll wash it and it will go away
  2. Cramp!!... ok, just stretch it and I will be ok
  3. I'm getting sick... get some rest and I will feel better tomorrow
  4. My eyes are so dry... just close them for a little while and they'll tear up
And like the Energizer bunny I could keep going and going, but I will not cause you get the idea. Any way, my point to this blog is just to share how amaze our body truly is... I just like to think of it as the perfect organization (I thought, well, if we are the perfect organism in medicine, why cant we also be the perfect organization for business?).

Think about this...
  1. We are able to think before we speak
  2. We are able to think before we write
  3. We read and process the information
  4. We are an extremely organized mass - walking, running, sleeping
  5. We can transport ourselves
  6. We get tired
  7. We update it as necessary (girls well.. you know... sorry to be a little stereotypical here, but they lead in procedures)
  8. We change its look as necessary (and depending on the visit)
  9. 24hrs a day (our body doesnt take a break)
I will now apply a couple of these to the act of Account Planning... just for fun (its kind of late today... so why not, they might not make sense tomorrow, but we'll see)...
  1. An AP can always tell the client, let me do some research first, I dont want to provide you the wrong answer
  2. As an AP you need to be able to do research and organize your thoughts before your write your client's communication strategy
  3. Just like a brand, we get tracking information (or any type of research), process it, and then make sense of it - for us and for the team
  4. With so man changes in culture and in the marketplace, an AP needs is always organized
  5. We need to travel to understand consumers across the world
And by now you are probably thinking... "oooookkkkk, so?"
And that is a good question. To be quite honest, today's blog was just to share and make you think how perfect we are - because not including religious stands here, that cant be denied.

And to close, and my final thought is this...

As we continue to strive to run the perfect company and to find the perfect insight, I urge you, I challenge you to rely on the understanding of your body and use that source of perfection to amend company mishaps, and really understand team work and leadership (I'm thinking of the heart and mind).

Hope this made sense... if not, well, I hope you at least had fun reading it.

Necessary Brand Extension?

By
As the yogurt wars continue to strengthen, brands are needing to find a stronger point of differentiation and go after stronger niches. While reading something online a couple of days ago, the above ad came up and left me thinking; is this right? Let me begin by saying that I love yogurt and in fact have it for breakfast most often than not. To be quite frank, I have never being a big fan of Yoplait - it's too sweet for my taste. This could very well be the fact that I grew up in Mexico, where yogurt is sour, so in my mind, the more sour it is the more natural. So you might be wondering what brand of yogurt I buy - well it is actually Greek, Fage, and I have to say that I love it. With that said, and given my inquisitive nature, I began asking people if they would buy the Yoplait Greek. Interestingly enough, of those who are currently buying some sort of Greek yogurt, not necessarily Fage said that they wouldn't buy it. Those who consumer Yoplait said that they would definitely...

We Are Nomads Connected to the World via the Net

I was just thinking of the power of the internet and social networking. Just thinking about your life and where you currently are, is this where you are from? Is this where you were born? It seems as if we are constantly moving in order to conquer different things, in order to achieve what we see as our goals. So back to the purpose of this post, social networking. How has the internet changed the way we you life and friends? I mean you can practically move to wherever in the world you want and still have "friends"... or cant you? Has your human contact declined, have you even noticed if it had?

Consultants: Saving a business but killing your own

By
As I was waiting on gate D3 in the New York LaGuardia airport, and while waiting for a colleague to get her boarding pass out, I couldn’t help but seeing the guy that you see in the picture. Ok, so far, well you’re probably thinking, well, he looks pretty normal, well dressed, sorry, let me rephrase that, is wearing a suit and tie. Now what caught my attention was when he moved to adjust his place on the 50” seat, you could see his gut just coming out… badly! Please understand that it is not that I am super fit, I mean I like to exercise, and I would do it more if I could. Going back to my observation, immediately after thinking “oh man, that guys is pretty chubby, I thought, well, it must be from all of the crap there has to eat at the airports. I decided to observe a couple more people and see if I saw the following trend: 1. Does he look like a business man? a. Based on the attire. I know that many people whom are business man don’t travel with a suit and tie, bu...
