There are few better investments of your time than to sign up for Roy H. Williams’ Monday Morning Memo and then taking the time to read each one when it arrives in your email each Monday.
I mentioned this to my friend and fellow voiceover guy, Dan Nachtrab, the other day. I also recommended that he explore the treasure trove that is archives of these Memos.
Today, Dan called my attention to this remarkable paragraph, drawn from the Monday Morning Memo for February 11, 2002.
Thoughts about Thoughts – In summarizing his theories concerning the mental makeup of Man, a famous neurologist recently said, “We are feeling beings that think, rather than thinking beings that feel.” I wholeheartedly agree. (Remember the opening flyleaf of my 1998 book, the Wizard of Ads? “Intellect and Emotion are partners who do not speak the same language. The intellect finds logic to justify what the emotions have decided. Win the hearts of the people, their minds will follow.”)
So, stop reading this blog and go plunge into the accumulated wisdom of Roy H. Williams. Let me know when you surface and what you think.
