If you can't write it....

...you don't know it.

It is a short quote I always used to have on my desktop. After I got a notebook it got lost. For me the quote is so true though. Writing structures my thoughts.

Blogging for 3 months now I realize that I have a only small number of subscribers and that hardly ever I receive comments or trackbacks, but I am having so much fun doing it!!!!!

It is fun and it helps me think. So if no one reads it, it is still worthwile. Even according to Seth:-)

Are you still blogging? I hope so. I know what you mean about blogging/writing. It brings some measure of clarity in to your thinking. I just started a blog called Suko's Notebook about books and reading, because that is what I feel passionate about. I had a lot of readers and comments at the very beginning (friends and family) but now it's feeling rather lonely. That's okay, I'm not only writing for an audience, I'm writing to learn how to write and also to learn in a more general sense.

Absolutely, it's worth it! I learn so much about myself through my writing. I've kept journals for a long time and often those entries bring me clarity.

Adding to the apology ranking Even in the pre internet era I loved long distance shopping. Yeah, I admit it, I like mail order. I am probably one of the few women who do not like shopping at regular stores. It is crowded, warm, and there are never enough fitting rooms. So when I go, I go early in the morning. Which I did the last time I went shopping. Unfortunately, I fell in with the Viktor & Rolf siege of H&M (which took place all over the world). Top designers Viktor & Rolf created a limited line of clothing for H&M. More convicted than...

Why do we need brand values? When I read about internal branding it is often described as a way to stimulate on brand behavior among employees. The brand and its values being a moral compass to guide behavior and decisions. What I don’t understand is this. So many branding professionals write about the importance of organizational culture in branding. If the brand is truly based on or grounded in the organizational culture and its values (assuming that the culture is a good one) then why is internal branding needed? Cultural values already guide behavior. So why do we need brand values?
