Advise in 140 characters.



I think that this is my first reference to Ad Age on this blog. Well, there is a first time for everything, and this is a good first time.

Mansi Trivedi following the best twitter etiquette gathered advise in the form of 140 characters from some of the best equipped minds form the industry.

these are some of my favorites:

Noah Brier, head of planning and strategy, the Barbarian Group, on ideas: "If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough."
Nathan Helenie, co-founder-chief creative officer, Crush & Lovely, on process: "Stay young, curious and inspired. Become disciplined and resourceful. Make things. Move. Fail when necessary. Execute with love and precision."

Jinal Shah, strategist, Electric Artists, on being fearless: "1. Don't be afraid to break rules. 2. And have a point of view, no matter how provocative or silly you think it is."
I think that mine would be:

Stay interested in other fields and learn from everyone, keep your mind open, surround yourself with different views. It's not about you.

what would yours be?
