Really liking the “Nugget + Mechanic + Emotion = Content” formula!

“It feels like once a week I have an existential crisis about working in marketing. It all feels so...meaningless. Especially with everything going on in the world. How do I get re-inspired to do this kind of work?” - Cynical Cyril

I go through this all day, everyday. And even more so when I look at other people's work that is so well thought out or just perfect (Crown Affair makes me cry on the daily)

So I go back to the last 3-5 things that made me feel happy for a moment. Typically going through my texts or even my receipts

Olipop Minis - The best! Perfect size and so cute in my fridge

My bathroom counter - I take off all the needs and leave out the beauties. Crown Affair, Ouai, The Victoria Beckham version of Augustinas Bader. All perfectly merchandised.

The giant Mission Impossible posters that just got put up all over Hollywood. Why? It reminds me of the old vibrancy in this city that our work will hopefully bring back soon

Somebody somewhere made all of that happen through their creativity.

Sorry for the long post but even just writing those out made me recommit to today..
