World War 2 in the Pacific - Japan's Gamble | Episode 1 | Documentary

On December 7, 1941 Japan gambled all and bombed the US Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor on Hawaii. In the following months Japanese forces rampaged across Asia, humiliating America and her allies. It looked as though she was unbeatable. But then America fought back.

The War in the Pacific launched an entirely new form of naval warfare. By summer 1942 the United States ruled the waves but Japan was still undefeated on land and a powerful force in the air. The future was still far from certain.

Frequently Asked Questions

What can Abraham Lincoln teach us?

Abraham Lincoln said, “I am slow to understand; very fast to forget.”

He knew how important it was to keep learning because he understood that there would come a time when he would need to unlearn old habits and embrace new ones.

The same is true of our businesses. We will hit roadblocks sometimes, and get stuck in unproductive ruts no matter how many times we plan for our success.

That's why it's crucial to seek new ways to grow and evolve constantly. If nothing else is important, we must learn more, even after we have reached the pinnacle.

Lincoln had the right attitude. He realized that he could not stop learning, even though he was able to be more productive in his business.

There are two types entrepreneurs. They are those who are busy and those that stay smart.

People who are always busy work solely to grow their businesses. They are involved in marketing strategies, product development, customer support, and other tasks every day.

Although they may feel they have achieved something significant, they often miss the mark. They won't be able to sustain their growth if they don't also work smarter.

What is the difference between successful entrepreneurs and average entrepreneurs? The ability to adapt quickly to changing 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 will not change their ways until they fail.

To be successful, you have to master both the art and skill of self-reflection.


What are three things that you can learn from the past?

There are numerous examples throughout history that demonstrate how we can learn and improve from our mistakes. These lessons can be applied to the challenges of business today and turned into opportunities for growth.

The past teaches us there is always another way. There's always someone out there that thinks outside the box, and takes risks that make him or her stand out.

History also shows that sometimes it's the underdogs who triumph. When you feel overwhelmed, stuck or lost, think back to the times when they won.

Take a look back at the past to learn from it and make improvements for the future. Learn from others' successes and failures.

These lessons will help you increase your success rate.


Are we able to learn from past mistakes and avoid making the same mistakes again?

Because we keep repeating the same mistakes, history repeats itself. We make mistakes and fail to learn. We don't change. We become complacent. We settle for mediocrity.

The same old stories are what repeat history. Our culture has conditioned us to believe there is an immutable law and a fixed truth. That we cannot do anything to affect them.

This is a way to stop us from thinking critically. From questioning authority. By challenging assumptions. And when we don't question, we don't grow. And when we don't grow, we stagnate. If we stagnate, then we make the exact same mistakes.

But history isn't the same because we continue making the same mistakes. We don't learn from our mistakes, and we keep repeating the same mistakes over and over.

Change your perception of the world and yourself to stop the cycle. There is no set in stone. All things are subject to constant change.

Accepting uncertainty is the key to breaking this cycle. Accepting that things may go wrong. To accept the possibility of failure. Accept that failure may be possible.

Accept that you may not achieve your goals. But to accept that, you should strive to improve anyway.

If you hold fast to certainty, you'll always be stuck in the past. You can't move forward if your beliefs are fixed.

You can't control your destiny. You can't control progress unless you let go.


What is the most important lesson you can learn from history?

There isn't an easy answer to this question. There are three things to keep in mind when learning. First, we need to recognize that knowledge is the power of learning. Second, it is important to recognize that knowledge is cumulative. Third, knowledge is constantly changing.

Knowledge is power. This empowers us with the knowledge we need to make better decisions and live better lives. We would not have any trouble making decisions if our information was perfect. We would always do exactly what we wanted without worrying about whether it was right or wrong.

Knowledge is not only power but also cumulative. This means that knowledge is not only powerful, but also cumulative. As time passes, we become smarter and smarter. Knowledge accumulates.

Let's now move on to the third point. Knowledge is not static. Knowledge is always changing. Every day, scientists discover new facts, theories, and ways of thinking. There are always new discoveries.

Our culture is dependent on technology that allows us instant access to information. It is possible to store large amounts of data digitally and share it with millions of people around the world.

In addition to technology, globalization has changed the way we view knowledge. Globalization is the process of ideas and products spreading across borders. Because of globalization, knowledge is now accessible everywhere.

The internet enables anyone to access information anywhere in the world. Anyone can read books, watch movies, listen to music, play video games, and surf the web. All these activities require knowledge.

Knowledge is becoming more available, but it is also becoming more niche. For example, if you go online today, you'll find hundreds of thousands of websites offering advice on topics such as health, finance, business, cooking, sports, and travel. These sites have information on every topic.

If you want to buy a car online, however, you will likely only find a few dozen websites that provide automotive-related services. There will not be thousands of sites that cover every subject. You'll only find a handful of sites that specialize in cars.

This specialization is because experts in particular fields can create and distribute valuable knowledge. Experts often have a deep understanding of a particular field. Experts have the ability to create high-quality content specifically for their audience.

Consumers will appreciate this specialization because they won't have to go through tons of irrelevant information. Instead, they can concentrate on a few sites that have lots of useful content.

Experts also have the advantage of specialization. They can build strong businesses around this expertise. A person buys a book because he expects that the author is knowledgeable enough about his topic to be able to give a concise and clear explanation. He wants to be confident that the author understands his message.

If an expert does not specialize, he risks losing out on potential customers who expect him to be knowledgeable.

Specialization isn't limited to just one area. Most people are experts in multiple areas today. One might be an accountant, lawyer, doctor, teacher, or other specialist. However, we are likely to be parents, spouses, friends and fans.

Specialization is so common that some experts argue that it's impossible to succeed without being an expert in several different things.

So, how do you become a specialist in multiple areas? The answer is simple: practice. You have to put in the time to learn. When you start to make progress, it's important to keep going until your skills are recognized by others.

Many industries today are dedicated to helping others accomplish this goal. People can quickly learn through courses, workshops seminars, conferences, schools and other venues.

How To

How did propaganda become marketing history.

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 propaganda, which can be translated as "nearby", or "at hand," and its noun "agogos, which can translate to "speech" or discourse, are the sources of the word. It's a "systematic attempt to influence attitudes and behavior."

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 - 1995), who served as Sigmund Freud's nephew and psychoanalyst, became famous after he invented the term "public relations" in 1922. He said, "The conscious and intelligent manipulations the organized habits or opinions of the masses is an essential element in a democratic democracy." He created the public relations firm Bernays & Company in 1927. He worked there until 1955.

From the 1920s to the 1950s, Bernays developed an "engineering consent" technique - influencing public opinion through advertising and publicity campaigns. His techniques were later adopted by mass media companies such as Time Magazine, CBS News, NBC News, and Newsweek. Bernays started working closely with government agencies and corporations after World War II. His clients included Johnson & Johnson and General Electric as well as Procter & Gamble and Coca-Cola.

His most notable client was the tobacco industry. He helped Philip Morris to develop a campaign against smoking in 1939. The Surgeon General recommended that indoor smoking be prohibited. The Cigarette Advertising Act of 1965 was passed. This law prohibited any cigarette advertising in print media, such as magazines, newspapers, or television.

He also provided advice to President Franklin D Roosevelt regarding how to handle the growing labor force during the Great Depression. Bernays advised that the president declare "war on Hunger" and use federal government's power in order to ensure adequate food. This strategy made it look like the government was a father figure and helped the president to win re-election in 36.

Bernays began to promote the idea that radio listening could increase radio sales as radio popularity grew. He also introduced the concept of "branding" and "advertising" in the early 1930s. He believed that consumers can be influenced by appealing directly to their emotions and making them feel special. So, he promoted the slogan: "Have your got what it take?" 1933: Encouraged women to invest in war bonds.

In 1944, he created a political action committee called "Young People for Freedom." This group had the goal of encouraging Americans aged 18 to 30 to vote Republican. Dwight Eisenhower won 1952 the presidency thanks to Bernays efforts.

Bernays convinced CIA in 1953 to stage a coup d'etat in Iran. Shah Reza Pahlevi would replace Mohammad Mosaddegh. This was to stop Mosaddegh acquiring 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.
