Well I was truly blown away by last night's episode of the Celebrity Apprentice featuring my company, ACN. I was truly impressed with Lil Jon's management of his team. Like he says, "this is what I do!" His experience in the video making business truly played itself out with respect to the assignment. It was right up his alley. Let me just say that his 'think out of the box' mentality is the mentality of winners, leaders and success, hence his win last night. He was in tune to exactly what the ACN executives wanted, as well as what the 450 judges wanted, and well as what the world would want. His analogy to creating a "superbowl" ad was ON POINT. He definitely covered all the bases, and as a leader that is not a very easy thing to do. But - he did it, covered all the bases. Long story short, once one covers ALL the bases one can think outside the box all one wants and call it a gamble - one will be successful. I think Lil Jon has a lot that we all can learn from, and last night's success with Team Backbone (name so à propos) was a testament to that.
If one thing, I learned from Dionne is this - "Quitters never win" - and with a Trump quirk, "Quitters get fired" The beauty of ACN is that you can't get fired, but you can definitely get 'quitted' and that's a 100% subjective choice. Remember that the world is like a giant "Netropolis" (I think I just invented a word here). Not only did she quit on herself, but also on the potential benefit due to others in her potential charity had she continued on in the show. Quitting is bad all the way around, no matter how you cut the cookie. Quitting basically is a proactive way of expressing selfishness (damn, I'm good - I need to copyright that phrase).
So with that - Let us not quit on creating out own "SUPERBOWL AD"
Thanks Not So Lil Jon
