Already bought

How is it, that when people buy shoes, they only look at Nike?

Or if they are buying laptops or phones, they only look into Apple?

Clothes, they only look at Banana Express?

Because before their purchase, they have already bought.

They bought into the companies a long time ago.

These companies have established a medium, they have placed themselves in the customer journey, they have wedged themselves in the lives of thousands of people. They are so ingrained in us, that we take them along for our next journey.

It does not matter if the person changes their sport or style, Nike and Banana Express will be there to support it. And whenever these companies issue new products/services, even it might be expensively priced, (ahem..iPhone X) these people will buy it.

How can we get other people to buy into us, like they have bought into these companies? How can we help these people along their journey?

 

Wifi and Paradigm Shifts

I was working on my laptop in my backyard, getting super frustrated…my webpages were taking forever to load.

I look at my wifi connection: fluctuating between 1-2 bars.

10 minutes later: I got to the point where all my pages were refusing to load..Finally I moved four feet closer to my house..instantly 4 bars go up and my pages load in miliseconds.

It seems in life I sometimes put myself in situations where I start waiting, praying that something good will happen

When in reality, all I need to do is move my laptop and myself a couple feet, change my perspective, and new opportunities will arise

Blueprint

How can we blueprint our life? How can we create an all encompassing network for everything?  Completely personalized for oneself?

This is something I have been thinking about for the past three years. Unfortunately, I do not have a photographic memory, so I cannot remember or recall everything that I have learned in my life. Often times, I have to reteach, reresearch, or relearn various skills. What if we had a blueprint for all of this? What if we had a set of steps as a go to for all life’s problems, so once we solve something, we never have to worry about solving it again?

The internet and Google have been helpful and can solve the majority of our problems, but I believe that nothing can be used as effectively as evernote, or just case filing all types of problems/interests/projects. Thus, to do this effectively, I need to document. Everything that has been of value. Then I need to structure a way for ease of access. Time to get to work!
