What's in it for me? WIIFM - The Positive Thoughts Guy #16 - 9/30/11

This is where so many companies get it wrong.

They always say "he can sell snow to eskimos"

The real question should be, "Can he sell TV's to people in TV shops?"

Maybe I’m looking at this all wrong or I cant see it in any other way than a ethical / moral / philosophical stand point. But the concept of WIIFM is why this country along with most civilization is circling the craper. The nice thing is this kind of thinking is unnecessary and soon will become obsolete it wont be about what we want or how can I become rich it will be about what we need.

Continued:

Being in line with universe and being productive in a benefital way for all is more important than a bottom line. I’m not knocking you in any way. A person with your positivity and zeal could benefit all humanity if you switch you focus =) I understand you are talking about apples and I am throwing carrots at you but I felt compelled it was from the heart =) sorry if I wasted any of you time.

@wenstephan No no no, I would never consider this a waste of time at all. That is a very valid distinction that is worth noting and I am happy you commented about it. You're right that the exchange of ideas isnt always coming from the idea of productive in the sense of overall happiness for all involved. The idea im going for is more about how folks can understand the negative and see the positive. If the case of convincing people or talking to others, there needs to be a reason for them.

@wenstephan Continued: But I would like to incorporate your idea of the overall picture as a part of my discussions because you are right that I am getting very granular and not acknowledging the overall spirit of positivity. Thank you for letting me know, and for being there to help show me the possibilities I am overlooking. Stay Positive. Beau
