I am not qualified to speak about God. I am going to speak about advertising. That is something I believe in. When I mention that I am in advertising, people's instinctive reaction is that you are trying to sell people things the don't want.
They regard advertising as being a bit distasteful. I am no more distasteful than you. Yes, of course, I am selling. But so are all of you.
You are hustling and selling or trying to make people buy something. Your services or your point of view. Tupperware parties, for example. They are selling.
You clean your car to sell it, showing it to its best advantage. People even put bread in the oven to make their houses smell nice when they are trying to sell them. The way you dress when going for an interview or a party, or merely putting lipstick on. Aren't you selling yourself?
Your priest is selling. He is selling what he believes in. God.
The point is we are all selling.
We are all in advertising.
It's part of life.
It's not how good you are, it's how good you want to be. Paul Arden.
