When a brand mimics an idea or a concept we are familiar with, it moves us to pay attention, or take a look at what they are offering.

Humans don’t like uncertainty, so safety and familiarity are options you should leverage.

Building a marketing campaign that is far away from your audience would have them walking past your ads because they won’t think the ad speaks to them, or because they cannot relate with it!

Therefore, look for key concepts that
mimic things that are familiar to the audience, and you have their attention!

READ CAPTION!!!!

Never knew I had podcasts? Well, now you do. To get more interesting content, click and listen away.

By the way, in this episode I discussed why many fashion designers, graphic designers, tailors, hairdressers, writers suffer.

And by suffer I mean, they put in so much efforts only to earn peanuts. and with the rate at which inflation is going, your 100k now is synonymous to 20k last year.

Sad times.

But you can be strategic and plot your way out, without planning to "japa" how do you rise above this storm?

Strategically. I talked about the difference between a strategy and a plan.

Asking the tough questions!

What we call perfection, is indeed PERCEPTION.
It is how an object, concept, or person meets our needs or expectations.
That's why what you call "excellently done" for someone with richer expectations may be "just okay". Perfection is how we judge, discern, think of, think about, see an idea, concept or person. It's in our minds.
So, let me ask you, what does "perfect" mean to you?

The issue now comes with what we perceive as "being perfect" and with this lens we often judge ourselves and the world around.

Truth is, the reason why we or whatever is around us doesn't meet our "perfect standard" is because they lack what it takes to get there, or our expectations are not realistic.
The safest thing to do henceforth for your mental health, is to judge your work by "YOUR best" and judge others by "THEIR best" and not "THE best".

Why is this important?

Looking at what you can do, you understand your capacity, and you take work that you can do so that you do not create an uneven expectation that you don't have the capacity to deliver.

Someone might ask, "are you saying we should not stretch ourselves?"

On the contrary; everyone has the capacity for growth, and because you know what you can do, you easily judge what you can become.

Apply the same for others. Growth is important but you won't know what to grow to, if you don't know where you are, and what you lack?

And, before I forget, there is no "THE best" because perfection is ultimately our PERCEPTION of a concept or a reality vs. our expectations.

Is this clear enough?

Let's begin this way; everyone can think. Everyone has the ability to produce thoughts. The ability to produce thoughts is called "thinking" If you didn't know that, I thought to clarify.

So, everyone thinks. But there are these sect of people who seem like they don't like to use their brain juice to produce any worthwhile thoughts.

They just linger around, make the worse decisions and run to the "thinkers" to think for them. Some may have money, some may not. Some of them are your bosses, some of them aren't, but we've met them—these outsourcers of thinking.

But if everyone thinks, why can't they just think it up? Well many reasons are at play here, but allow me to suggest at least one.

Now, you must understand that the human mind is wired for both adaptation, and survival. Meaning, we get into an environment, and we just blend in. If the environment doesn't like to blend with us, we find a way to survive it's harsh treatments. Some times the environment bests us, sometimes we are victorious.

But the human mind is WIRED to THINK up solutions, and think them well.

So, what happens to people who just sit like a blub expecting others to think for them?

They THINK that what they asked you to think for them isn't worth their brain juice. Yes! They have thought through it, and don't want to go through the stress of producing a good thought.

So, those who don't "think for themselves" actually think. They are strategic. They find someone who has a proven record of thinking up very sterling solutions, they latch on to them, and use money, or influence, or emotional connection or blackmail, to get them to begin to think for them.

You may see them as parasitic, or symbiotic if you get benefits from thinking for them.

But they aren't clueless as you may think. They have ADAPTED. Many times it happens in childhood, where the parents never let the child to learn independently, they made the child believe that they (the children) are incapable of making the right choices and would always need someone to make it for them.

Content pillars are a very important part of content creation. If you get them wrong, you could struggle to build content consistently.

HUMANITY WILL STAIN IT.

The recent trends in the tech space, from , to the whole saga got me thinking.

Really, is there any perfect work system without its flaws?

Won't our humanity get the best of us in the end? Don't get me wrong, I am not VALIDATING bad behaviour, I am only trying to run a diagnosis.

Why?

So, here are 2 things that stood tall for me.

1) We are humans, and our systems will reflect that. No matter how successful our systems are, some flaw will be found. In scientific experiments, there is something called "system error", or "Equipment bias", this happens when a tool is not calibrated properly and gives a wrong result.

It happens. Machines too can malfunction. Humans too. Systems too. This happens.

2) To be honest enough to admit that you are capable of making mistakes. And then building structures around them to ensure they don't hurt as many people.
Truth is, you'd always have to review your structures and your patterns to ensure that it isn't experiencing "system error".

I guess that's the burden of having to own and run a business.

But to ever think that your business is "perfect" is an illusion. As long as you are human, something will be wrong.

Prepare for it, be honest about it, and build systems that would reduce the impact of that flaw, because it will happen.

You'd make mistakes. It's part of process, and this thing we call life.
