Many of you remember how Elvis would express his appreciation to the audience after every song he performed, emphasizing these magic words:  “Thank You, Thank you very much!”. The first lesson we can learn from Elvis is this: If we are in a service position (and aren’t we all?), the four most important words in our business are “Thank You Very Much.”  Excerpt from a "THANK YOU VERY MUCH, INC." post in its blog.
I decided to share this because it touched me to think about how Elvis influenced his fans, in life as a whole but also in the way some of them carry their business too. I just learned there's this business lady, Holly Stiel, that named her business - apparently - after one of Elvis' most famous words while a performer. She runs a consulting business in the field of concierge/customer service. I am really touched by the way she talked about what EP taught her, something she dedicates part of her life teaching others: Always show your appreciation to how others help you in any way they do.

True intimacy isn’t physical. It’s not about bodies coming together. It is the copulation of the mind and heart. It’s about being understood.

But eventually I realized that when I was with him, I was always trying to present the most cheerful, entertaining, attractive version of myself, instead of just being myself.

“We trade trauma for wisdom…it deepens our eyes.”
Cole Sprouse
Listen to what he says about our culture of sensationalism at around the 24:20 mark and consider the damage that specific mentality of extremes has caused many innocent people in the entertainment industry via celebrity gossip news and social media.
It seems that few people these days are interested in knowing the human being behind the famous name; they want to know only about the paragons of virtue and the absolute monsters, so that’s what celebrity gossip gives them, with no room whatsoever for anything in between those two extremes.

Listen also to what he says about custody with regard to his parents. Sometimes it’s the fathers who are better equipped mentally and emotionally to raise children.
Ignore this sensationalist headline, ignore the previous weird interview elsewhere in which he smokes a cigarette indoors, and all that sort of nonsense. Give Cole Sprouse a shot at convincing you that he’s one of the most insightful and thought-provoking people who’s ever sat down for a conversation with Steven Bartlett on Diary of a CEO.

"Hold on, hold on...how can you take a piece of, oh, some old century, and stitch it into a modern one? Wouldn't people notice that..." Susan flailed a bit, "oh, that people have got the wrong armor and the buildings are all wrong, and they're still in the middle of wars that happened centuries ago?"
IN MY EXPERIENCE, SUSAN, WITHIN THEIR HEADS TOO MANY HUMANS SPEND A LOT OF TIME IN THE MIDDLE OF WARS THAT HAPPENED CENTURIES AGO.
"Very insightful, but what I meant was--"
Terry Pratchett, Thief of Time
