Tis the season

The holiday season is getting closer and for some reason the snow isn't even here yet! Tonight marks the kickoff to Christmas! Nothing says Xmas is coming quite like the Santa Claus Parade. I wouldn't miss it. At any age I've dressed up in my Michelin parka and sipped hot chocolate as every float makes its way down portage avenue. I'm old enough to know better but I still can't shake the magic of Christmas. The music, the decorations, and the demeanour of the city changes. Tonight it's official, the christmas tunes begin. Now it can snow anytime. As well next week is another must holiday tradition, the signature's craft show. Samples galore and nothing but xmas wall to wall. Love it.

As an AD major I'm addicted to watching the best commercials out there and I'm a sucker for the holiday ones. I wanted to share my top three with you :)

This one is all about the magic of our loved fairytales and magical stories. Well done.


Jingle Bells, basketball style! Cute!

And what would the holidays be without the Nutcracker?

The Golden Circle!

I did two posts last week :) this is one of them. I'll make sure to do another one for you this weekend! tata for now!

This is Simon Sinek and he looks at why people and companies are successful. He uses the golden circle to focus his argument. People know what they're doing and many know how they're doing it. But not very many know why. He talks about how many companies work from the outside-->in according to The Golden Circle and how this is where many companies go wrong. They expect an action from their audience by telling them what they do and how the do it. The key is to work from the inside--> out. Apple for instance is a company that is driven by a cause/belief. People don't by what you do they buy why you do it. The Apple company is motivated by challenging the status quo and thinking differently. Then they show you how they're doing it and what they're selling. People want to be inspired. The golden circle can be applied not only to companies but people. Why are you going to school, what drives you? Ask yourself and you'll be that much closer to achieving your goals.
