Nolan Bushnell eight-minute video on creativity

Nolan Bushnell eight-minute video. There are many reasons why eight minutes is too long. None of them were good enough to stop me from watching.

 

 

A fire that isn’t continuously fed goes out.

Knowing, clearly where we are headed in life makes decision making easier.

Easier and easy are not the same, by the way.

If McDonald’s copied Apple’s marketing vibe

Insanely clever, understated humor.

Who couldn’t use a smile or decent chuckle at work?

Insight: Apple has a signature (branded) formula for their new product announcements. The director captured that brilliantly.

McDonalds on the other hand, has created an unmistakable brand built on grease and “secret ingredients” covered in bread crumbs.

Two world-recognizable brands.

Two distinctly different emotional connections.

Roy probably had to deal with this back in the 1930’s.

Just an “i was there” validation.

 

A fascinating day.

We will be back inside Disneyland today.

It was good to have a dose of reality for a better appreciation of life in general.

Want a perfect example of glorious risk taking?

Disney's Toy Soldiers marching at Christmas
Two days ago. i love that the photo is not “picture perfect”.

 

If you click on the Music video link, you may find inspiration for why risk taking is so important. For starters, you may reach new clients, and you may create a core emotional connection with your existing clients. This could also backfire too. That’s why inspiration is critical.

“Gateway to the Plains” Music Video Glorieta Pass, a natural corridor between the mountains and plains, is largely responsible for the unique diversity of cultures and historical events represented at Pecos National Historical Park. Ancient trade routes, the Santa Fe Trail, a railroad, Route 66, and Interstate 25 have all followed a similar path through this gateway in northern New Mexico. #RappingRanger (Background track “Black Spotlight” by Tia Cooper) Posted by Pecos National Historical Park on Monday, December 14, 2015

 

Taking risks is risky. So is playing it safe.
