Frequently Asked Questions
What Can We Learn From Abraham Lincoln?
Abraham Lincoln stated, "I am slow learner; I am quick to forget."
He was aware of the importance to continue learning, knowing that there would be a time when he would have to relearn his old habits and adopt new ones.
The same holds true for our businesses. No matter how hard we plan for success there will be times where we run into roadblocks that cause us to get stuck in a rut.
It's important to keep learning and growing. We must never stop learning, even after reaching the top of our success.
Lincoln had the right attitude. He knew that he could improve his business' effectiveness, but he couldn’t stop learning.
There are two types entrepreneurs. Those who stay busy and those who stay smart.
Those who stay busy focus solely on growing their business. They work on marketing strategies, product development, customer service, and other daily tasks.
While they may feel they have accomplished something worthwhile, many times they don't. Entrepreneurs who aren't focused on learning more won't see sustainable growth.
What makes successful entrepreneurs different from average entrepreneurs? The ability to adapt quickly and to change circumstances.
Successionable entrepreneurs look for ways that they can improve their products or services when faced with difficult situations.
However, most entrepreneurs stick to old-fashioned methods that no longer work. They refuse to change course until their business fails.
You must be able to master both self-reflection and adaptation in order to succeed.
What are three lessons history can teach us?
There are plenty of examples from history that show how we can learn lessons from our mistakes. They can be applied to today's business challenges.
The past teaches us that there is always another way to do things. You will always find someone who thinks outside of the box and takes chances that make them stand out.
History also shows us that it's often the underdogs who succeed. So when you feel stuck, overwhelmed, or even lost, look back to those times when the underdog won.
Learn from the past and use the lessons to improve your future. Learn from others' successes and failures.
These lessons will help improve your success rate.
What can we learn from history to avoid repeating past errors?
Because we make the same mistakes over and over again, history repeats itself. We fail to learn from our mistakes. We don't change. We become complacent. We settle in mediocrity.
History repeats itself when we believe the same old stories. We are conditioned to believe in immutable truths and immutable rules. They are immutable laws and truths that we can't change.
This is a way to stop us from thinking critically. To question authority. By challenging assumptions. We don't grow if we don’t question. When we don't learn, we stagnate. Stamina is when we continue to make the same mistakes.
However, history does not repeat itself because we keep making the same mistakes. History repeats itself when we refuse to learn from past mistakes and instead keep repeating them.
You can break the cycle of history repetition by changing how you look at the world and yourself, by understanding that nothing is set in stone. Nothing is unchangeable. Everything is in constant flux.
The key to breaking the cycle of uncertainty is acceptance. Accept that things can go wrong. To accept that we may not succeed. To accept that failure is a possibility.
Accept that you may not achieve your goals. But to accept that, you should strive to improve anyway.
Holding on to the past will keep you stuck. If you believe there are only certain truths, it will be impossible to move forward.
To achieve freedom, you must be open to change. If you want progress, you need to let go of control.
What can we learn from our mistakes?
Don't be too concerned about making a mistake. It's an opportunity to learn. That means you'll learn something. You can always learn from your mistakes. Don't fret about the little stuff, because mistakes are okay. All of us make mistakes.
Even though you may feel embarrassed after making a mistake it doesn't mean you have to feel guilty. It's how you deal with your mistakes that matters most. They will eat at your soul if you allow them to bother you. But if you view them as opportunities for growth, you'll come out stronger on the other side.
It is important to recognize and learn from your mistakes. Do not dwell on it. Instead, look ahead to the next step. Keep moving.
Do not obsess about your mistakes. Instead, find ways to improve. Learn from your failures and make improvements for tomorrow.
Successful Inventions made by accident
Inventors are human. However, how we react to these mistakes will determine whether or not our inventions are great successes.
When it comes to invention, there are no accidents. Every invention was designed. There are no accidental inventions.
A deliberate act of invention is called an invention. It is an intentional decision to create something. Something that solves the problem. It makes someone's life easier.
Understanding that mistakes are not inevitable is the key to invention success. Instead of trying to avoid making mistakes, learn from them.
While we wish to claim that invention can be easy, it isn’t. It takes hard work and perseverance to invent something. It's not a quick fix. It takes time.
This means that you need to spend lots of time thinking about solutions and ideas. What do people care about? What do they want?
You have to ask yourself questions like these. Questions that will help you figure out what kind of product or service you should develop next.
This requires you to let go of any preconceived notions. All assumptions about the world's wants and needs. You have to listen carefully to your customers and potential customers.
You have to learn what they want. It is not what they think they want.
Once you have identified what they want, the next step is to design a way that you can give it to them. This is where invention comes in.

How To
How did marketing history become propaganda?
In 1879, Max Weber, a German sociologist and German sociologist, first coined the term "propaganda". The Greek word "praopagos", which means "to talk well," was the source of the phrase. The Latin verb "propere" (meaning "nearby"/ "at hand) and the noun ("agogos"), meaning "speech/discourse," gave rise to the word. It is "a systematic effort towards shaping attitudes and behaviour."
George Orwell, a British journalist, wrote in his 1928 book, "Propaganda": "To understand propaganda's true nature, we need to realize that it does not have the intent to make people believe anything. It is only the intention of changing their beliefs...It is meant to make them accept one thing over another."
Edward Bernays (1891 –1955), who was Sigmund Fréud's nephew. The psychoanalyst and nephew of Sigmund Freud became famous after he invented "public relations" back in 1922. He said that "the conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in a democratic society." He established the public relations company "Bernays & Company" where he worked up to 1955.
Bernays created an "engineering consent” technique that influenced public opinion via advertising and publicity campaigns from the 1920s through the 1950s. His methods were later adopted by mass media outlets such as Time Magazine and CBS News. Bernays worked closely with corporations and government agencies after World War II to influence public opinion. His clients included Johnson & Johnson and General Electric as well as Procter & Gamble and Coca-Cola.
The tobacco industry was his most prominent client. He assisted Philip Morris in launching a campaign to stop smoking. In 1939, the Surgeon General recommended that smoking should be banned inside. The Cigarette Advertising Act was passed in 1965. It prohibited any advertisement for cigarettes in print media including newspapers and television.
He also gave advice on how to deal during the Great Depression with the growing labor movement. Bernays advised that the president declare "war on Hunger" and use federal government's power in order to ensure adequate food. This strategy made the government seem like a loving father figure, and it helped the president win his re-election bid in 1936.
As the popularity of radio increased, Bernays started promoting the idea of "radio listening" to increase sales of radios. He also introduced the concept of "branding" and "advertising" in the early 1930s. He believed that people could be influenced if they appealed to their emotions and made them feel special. So, he promoted the slogan: "Have your got what it take?" He encouraged women to buy war bonds in 1933.
In 1944, he created a political action committee called "Young People for Freedom." This group was created to encourage Americans between the ages of 18 and 30 to vote Republican. Bernays' efforts proved successful when Dwight Eisenhower won the presidential election in 1952.
Bernays convinced CIA in 1953 to stage a coup d'etat in Iran. Shah Reza Pahlevi would replace Mohammad Mosaddegh. He justified the move as necessary in order to stop Mosaddegh becoming the nationalist of Iranian oilfields. After the coup, Bernays wrote articles praising the new regime as a "moderate," "progressive," and "modernized" one.
Bernays won many other awards during his career.
