Reinventing You: Define Your Brand, Imagine Your Future | Dorie Clark | Talks at Google

[@Alphaduncan]

Every now and then you come across a message that moves you to take action. This is it. Off to get the book.

Great talk. I agree that everyone isn't meant to be a specialist. I'm a generalist myself. It can be both a blessing and a curse. A diverse background can a head scratcher to people who have spent their whole lives being specialists. I say boredom leads to a much wider viewpoint and embraces a naturally curious nature. Having a 30k foot viewpoint has its uses.

Thank Dorie Clark ! A lot of positive emotions and values.

[@PriscilladeCarvalhoNunes]

I do not think she is idolizing any crazy self promotion. It's more a matter of becoming aware of the signs that you are showing to the world and the brand that this is creating. It's more a matter of accepting your particularities and make the best of it.

[@debbiebelair6328]

Great talk. We do need to trust our own intuitions of who we are. We still live in a place and time where it's more important to learn about what others think of us...unfortunately.

[@bealazay1730]

Simply branding yourself by going with whatever people say you say you are can be clouded by stereotypes others may have of you. This could be very harmful. Trust yourself more.

Very inspiring talk!

[@MarkoKraguljac]

Why not also free ourselves from confines of the future? Its even greater source of misery and anxiety for humans. Our obsession with ever-changing surface is safe way to madness.. of which majority of humanity already suffers. Socially accepted madness (real dysfunction not just word!). IMO, life begins when we stop deluding ourselves that we control or create anything. Its an important distinction who does it! Think about it before discarding hastily. What do you think after you think? :)

"Board of Director Mentors" - totally agree!!

[@nkwopeter6133]

Your presentation, very interesting.

[@darren2658]

Maybe it's not reinventing yourself, or your brand. Maybe it's more about sharing yourself and your existing brand, thoughts, values, and ideas

[@terencejohncortez6662]

Good points tackled.

[@yogee0007]

Wow- I am totally in love with Dorie , I would love to ask her out for a date 😎

[@chimukamoore3050]

Great talk!

[@PazLeBon]

how can ou be an expert on rebranding yourself when you are still about 12 years old? Middle class private school thinking right there lol

[@stellaprospera4067]

It just feels odd to have sat here and listened to someone preach about being authentic all while delivering that message in such a disingenuous way ... I wanted to "like" Dorie. I really did, but laying on that "false familiarity" too thick negates the purpose of the entire chummy, chummy, routine that's being used to "sell me" on the idea in the first place ... Oh well ... :(

[@360.Tapestry]

i find some tomboys attractive lol

[@MarkoKraguljac]

This is more depressing than kids beauty pageants. I had to down-vote it with heavy heart. Promotion and reinvention of madness is not something this world needs more.
