When things don't go as planned, how do you explain it? The answer is that we have no control over other people or time; thus, the greatest thing we can do is work hard and smartly and wait for success.
I am not sure if this applies to the entertainment industry of any kind. Because it does seem like many entertainment companies have taken this to heart. So now it seems they are all more concerned with activism, social messaging and making a societal impact and are no longer interested in entertaining their audience. Or perhaps that is it, they missed the message of this. As Sinek here does still say Apple has good computers. The why is not a substitute for the what, it should be a boost to it. But I'll stop here.
I love the social messaging many companies are doing. And I believe a company's societal impact matters. But I agree that it should never replace the 'what' that is offered. As you said: "They why is not a substitute for the what, it should be a boost to it." Well said.
@@janetbeatrice9505 Yes, I agree. And actually those of us like you and myself who support the possitive social messaging should call this out more often. Because if companies are just going to turn it into easy bottom tier pandering at the deutrement of the products it could actually turn people against a lot of these positive social goals, where they otherwise would be supportive. Let's say you're a coffee company, step one is to make good coffee. If your coffee is crap quality, nobody cares that you support equal rights. But if two coffee types are of good quality AND ( and being the important word here) support equality, you will boost both your coffee sales and the social message. If your coffee sucks and you support equality, it will lower both your sales as well as support for equality. Wish it wasn't so, but it's how that works.
I would like Simon Sinek to tell us what his why is?? That would be interesting. But he never talks about that. I don't even think he knows what he's really trying to say. It's like jibberish.
They're undeniably successful financially, but it's not some mystical "mindset" that makes them so, they're just really good at manipulative feelings-based marketing.
Also, at the time this was created, they were still very much on a different level because of Steve Jobs. They've since just become like everyone else.
The sound of an airplane flying overhead - at the end of the Wright Brothers story - was a nice touch. Well done. ✈️
Well I'm glad he's able to make a living doing this.
Good message. #Uganda
My argument is people don't give a shit about what/ why you do it. They care about what they get.
This is excerpts from the full Ted Talk from 2009.

Chk this out
i agree
7 minutes of this guy blowing smoke lmao
Nothing he is saying is mind blowing or awakening. This has been around for 1000s of years 😂
True, but why is it not incorporated in every marketing message or conversation or our daily lives?
Who says Apple is that successful ?
The facts and figures do. Sales figures. Services figures. Got 62 billion in cash and short term investments on balance sheet.
