A race for one

 


A big race comes once every few years.

In the past, I didn’t have to do anything. Just watch the wayang from the sidelines.

Now, I’m mandated to pick a winner.

It’s a waste of my time and resources as the outcome benefits nobody other than the winner himself!

Special vs Famous

 

In the past, if you are special or have something special, you can be famous. Money will flow in when people know about it. Now you have to show why you’re ‘special’ in order to get known and famous then get rich. If you have nothing special to show, just create something and make it into a ‘storm’. 😊

Rich and Famous

 

In the past, you could get famous for being ultra rich.

Now you have to get famous to get rich. So the cheapest  way is to become a content creator, vlogger, youTuber, influencer or just do and post on social media something foolish or extraordinary. People are constantly on the lookout on their mobile devices for something to gossip & entertainment! 😊

Famous for mistakes?

 

In the past, it’s easy to hide our mistakes unless one let the cat out of the bag.   

Now, in the digital world with ‘eyes’ everywhere, it’s very tough to hide mistakes unless you mask them or your face. Exposed mistakes can make someone famous for the wrong reason. They can be very costly and damaging too if you’re also a known or public person. Many things are destroyed!

Creativity vs fame


In the past, if you’re creative, you could be famous if your creation creates a storm.  

Now in the digital age and social media, there is no need to be creative. Anyone can be famous by self-promoting one-self on anything. If you do get famous, congratulations! You need to prepare in advance your elevator speech in case someone recognizes you and interviews you on the street. 😊
