That really awesome my friend @phoneinf... That for your presence that in this post talent is always overrated let learn marketing....
That's cool such creation must appreciated
Keep rocking this platform to showcase your talent..
Well done dear friend..
Nice post made by you with love for us @phoneinf thanks for the your explanation...
You are great too Kitani, I hope you make more videos :-)
In my mind, Seth Godin is the all time marketing Guru. He shares a lot of your insights here. The world is filled with talented people but how many of them do we hear about or even know of. Now the world is also filled with attention hungry talent-less slobs who add no value to our lives which we see and hear about every single day....
I’m at work right now, so I can’t watch your video right now, but I agree with you 100% about talent.
I remember our guidance counselor had a sign out side his office that said, “Your I WILL means more than your I.Q.!”
I didn’t understand that at the time, but I sure do now.
I’ve known a ton of really talented people over the years who never do much as an adult for no other reason other than they didn’t apply themselves for multiple different reasons.
Art, or at least GOOD art (because there is also a lot of BAD art out there thanks to posmodernism and nihilism) will always serve a purpose. Good art is a key to the spirit world much like Religion or Spirituality. It can move us emotionally from visceral highs to melancholy lows. It can challenge us and make us think, like a Stanley Kubrick or a David Lynch film, or an Carl Jung lecture or a Baudelair poem, an Edgar Allen Poe story. A good artist, once recognized for their talents, will echo throughout history, whereas bankers and marketers and other peddlers of impermanant monetary nothingness will be forgotten with time. So talent is not fucking overrated, it is righteous and holy. I am so sick of conservativism getting invaded by all these 'skeptics' and other braindead athiest morons who have no souls. They are an insult to true conservatavism and eventually people will see them for the frauds they are. There seems to be an endless abundance of their slimy kind on this platform though. Have an interesting Jordan Peterson style lecture or are a forward thinking conservative artist like Sam Hyde or Kanye West or make informative conspiracy videos like Truthtsream Media? You'll be lucky to make much at all. But jizz out the same tired marketing bullshit? You'll get lots of money. Disgusting. The end times are coming 10, 20 years tops.
Wait. Jordan Peterson is making plenty on his good stuff. Talent is overrated in the modern world. There are more important stuff to focus on. And marketing can be used for both good and bad.
Yes but Jordan Peterson went about things the old school way and climbed his way up the ladder pre internet. Sam Hyde got big on YouTube prior to the adpocalypse because YouTube's algoritms used to work better. In post adpocalypse/Alt-Tech world, no one is paying attention to the new unknown Petersons, Hydes, etc. Its hard for new artists to get ahead on these alt-tech sites. Steemit is predominantly concerned with Cryptos and marketing while art, philosophical, conspiracy etc. discussions make significantly less or barely at all on here. Minds has similar problems, though mainly because their Boosting system is extremely buggy and subs will only see 25 percent of your posts, and this is something numerous ppl have complained about.
But to get back on topic, I don't feel talent is overrated. Our modern world doesn't value art anymore or sees it as disposable because postmodernism and nihilism have deeply infected art with this meaninglessness. This doesn't mean that actual good art doesn't exist but that people can't see it or value it as much because they are used to the bad disposable art so much that their perception has been flawed, so they see what they are used to and project it onto you. Like looking through glasses that have been dropped in manure. Technically you are right that there are more important things to focus on, but not in the way you are thinking: Spirituality and religion if you will are more important than anything else, but art and music are one of their most important vessels of transmission. Marketing and business serve their place but should only be used as a means to an end, to become reasonably prosperous. But one should not single mindedly obsess with the acquisition of money and the 'false profits' of money worship. It is a means to an end, not a religion in of itself. Unfortunately,, many athiest minded newcomers to Libertarianism don't understand this. Maybe you are not one of them, but I have seen many who are that way. Ancient societies such as Greece and Rome had all things in balance: art, music, scientific studies, religion and financial studies. This was the best path and this balance should be struck again in modern society. For if we become single mindedly obsessed with one of them, in this case finance, then we neglect the other aspects of life and therefore become developmentally arrested, and our minds bodies souls get stuck symbolically in reduced embryonic states of being if you will.
Yes marketing can be used for good or for bad, its true. Like anything. I do not mean to come off as harsh or bitter, it is just my nature I suppose.
True.
It is somehow unfortunate that your statement is correct. I see it many times. It is not the best who gets the support or the praise. It is the one who "markets" itself better.
Lol marketing is sucking Satan's cock. I remember that skit, classic microphone blow.
I agree with you nice post sir
