Occasionally, You Can Actually ENJOY Your Job!

NOTE: The fact of the matter is that I am having a wonderful time (which is not that challenging, as I am normally very entertained with challenges such as the matching up of socks in the early morning before a breakfast meeting, and looking for my glasses) with this doggone TNNWC GIST VIDEO campaign.

Quite seriously, I really enjoy the creative process, especially when it involves conveying an idea through a combination of wordsmithing and humor.

The "bonus fun" is the use of other people's graphics with my own embedded commentary, as well as the creation of such provocative truncated urls as http://bit.ly/LethalNapkin , http://bitly/2guys1napkin , and a few others that are so off base that they generate double takes -- I strive for this attention, as TNNWC Group strives to provide its clients with the optimal combination of penetrating technology and brilliant, incisive wit.

I offer this up for your enjoyment. - DC
------------------------
NOTE: Another in a series of shockingly (and annoyingly successful) TNNWC Gist Video promos follows for you to make fun of, and to laugh about with your high-falutin' friends. Well -- the Client is laughing all the way to the bank. Seriously, I enjoyed the results from, and responses, to this little ad piece (which was based upon a brief status update sent around by the notoriously out-of-the-box (and out-of-their-minds) TNNWC BUZZWORKS Buzz Team. Go, Team!--DC





Oh, am I ever so proud of this campaign! Thank you, me Buzzards, ye! A toast to Ye!

Keep this "flight of the soul" in check. Don't let what you do, or what others think or expect of you serve to define you as a person. You must permit yourself to be yourself.

Who you are, when you peel back the layers of the years of neglect, abuse, disillusionment and conformity, is a complex, individual being, with early-formed impressions, dreams, likes, dislikes, ambitions, questions, a sense of wonderment, certain preferences and inclinations, and certain likes and dislikes. These are the metaphorical bricks and mortar of which you are constructed.

Do whatever it takes to cease your work from time to time, and to let your mind (memories, instinct, intuition, introspection, personal ethics, values, dreams and a great deal of wholesome, adventuresome childishness and limitless imagination). Whether it is listening to music, meditating, working out, playing a board game or a sport, taking a walk or calling up a childhood friend --- you must do it.

Do not let anyone but you define who you are.

My favorite meditative, relaxing means of recapturing my emotional and spiritual essence, as well as amping-up my creative energy is by listening to music (RadioDAZZ Music Breaks) that I enjoy several times a day. I takes me to a place where I can really be myself. It is like heart medicine for me.

I am the Chairman and Director Of Business Strategy for TNNWC Group, LLC -- but I am also Douglas Castle...and without him, I am merely a robot.

Faithfully,

Douglas Castle

International Leadership - The New Paradigm - 01.14.2011

International Leadership - The New Paradigm at 14th January, 2011

Article from The Internationalist Page (http://TheInternationalistPage.blogspot.com) written by author Douglas Castle, Chairman of TNNWC Group, LLC.

Dear Friends, Futurists, and Internationalists:

During the course of these past three years, the entire world has seen and experienced an economic tsunami, a crisis of trust and faith in the most venerable institutions, and a growing divide between those few powerful persons in positions of authority and those many persons who constitute the masses.

The masses have universally become disenfranchised and distrustful of those in positions of authority and power. The members of the suffering masses are feeling either helpless or restless -- but few are trustful or happy with the status quo.

There is a new tie that binds all of those citizens of The Internationalist Community, The Global Village and the Human species -- we are all sharing a crisis of confidence, and a lack of qualified, trustworthy leaders with vision and true integrity.

There is a high probability that some of those currently in power, those currently insulated and ensconsed within the protective palaces which they have built by the sweat, toil and suffering of the barely-subsisting majority will be displaced within these next one to three years.

New leaders will no longer be able to depend upon sovereignty, patriotism, empty rhetoric and hate-mongering to unite the masses behind them and to keep their power. The Internet, the entropic economy and the mysterious changes in the dynamics of the weather have made those safeguards of bygone times a virtual (pun intended) impossibility.

New leaders, in addition to technological mastery and expert advice, will be required to exhibit qualities which the older, dying "guardians by divine right" have never had to bring to the fore.

New Leadership will have to demonstrate a genuine alignment with the populations for whom they are responsible, as well as those same populations to whom they will now have to be accountable. New leaders will have to serve their followers instead of merely stealing votes and money from them based upon half-truths and blind faith.

There will still be a use for weaponry and shows of military strength -- but these will now have to be tempered with a heartfelt passion for their followers, as well as for the causes, organizations and nations which these leaders will lead. There will be a need for empathy, as well as a desire to dominate and control.

New leaders will be tasked with not only leading, but with caring for their constitutents, adherents and followers. The metaphorical muscle of the heart, long neglected but often abused, will have to be strong in these leaders. In sum:

"The Greatest Leaders Must Have As Deep A Love For Their Followers As They Do For Their Sacred Ideals And Objectives." -- Douglas Castle

My borrowed time here has led me to believe that Love can be a strength as well as a weakness. Do not underestimate its power and role in enlightened leadership. -- DC

2 Rules To Living A Much Better Life - Daily Burst Of Brilliance .001

2 Rules To Living A Much Better Life


Dear Friends and Worthy Opponents:

My unsolicited advice to everyone (without exceptions or exclusions), includes 2 Rules To Living A Much Better Life. Learn and follow these simple suggestions, and you will enjoy a happier, much more productive life. Fail to learn and follow these suggestions at your own peril.

1) If you have a conflict or an issue with a person, take the time to communicate with that person directly, and do not operate through agents, gossip, or third parties. Communicate your own message directly to the person with whom you have a conflict or issue, and it is likely that either a) the issue can be resolved quickly, or, b) if this is not possible, you can begin to plan for the best alternative while preparing  for the worst from the person whom you've confronted. Your most critical communications in life will be thoses that are one-to-one and direct;

2) Do not say anything to anyone which you would not want the entire world to know about, or to have attributed to you as the one who said it. Odds are that backbiting, insults and other "off-color" things which you say about someone else in "in private" will be repeated to some other party or parties at some time. When you speak, pretend that the videos are rolling, the microphones are on, and that the van parked halfway down your block is loaded with people from some secret government agency, monitoring your words and actions in the process of collecting testimony to use against you.

This is not paranoia...it is pragmatism. You can sign your own conviction, death warrant or epitaph by having your words heard or repeated to a third party in a different context. Do not be caught in a lie, or get yourself branded as a whiner, a snitch or a bigot. Two added advantages are that it is a) easiest to remember the truth and what you actually did and said, and b) you can never, ever be surprised by anyone using your own words or actions against you.

Best of all, living by these two rules will assure that you will always be thinking and speaking with sincerity, clarity and accountability.

Everything in life is "on the record."

Faithfully,

Douglas Castle
