Do you copy what the famous say?
Is it true that if a person is a celebrity that it makes them an authority on something?
I type this blog because of viewing a variety of headlines that espoused what successful people did and why we all need to do what they did. For example the latest one was about what successful people drink. After smiling I started to think about all the ideas that have been introduced by famous companies or people that have been an absolute waste of time or money. Let me give you a few examples;
- Diets with ‘miracle’ foods or ingredients
- Special exercise equipment or regimes
- Hewlett-Packard’s TouchPad
The key in all of these ideas that the famous promote is to remember;
- Don’t buy-in to all the hype
- Remember that any long-term results take time
- Stick with what works for you
The key question to ask is; how much did the celebrity get paid for the promotion?
