“What is a brand?” I found the answer to this question in an old audio recording* about the difference between character and charisma:

Character
Character is something that you have and something that you are. You could be marooned on a desert island and your character would still be important.

Charisma
But charisma wouldn’t do you any good at all. Charisma requires the presence of others, while character is all about you.


Brand=Character


Character is derived from the Greek word that means chisel or the mark left by a chisel. It’s the entity you are after you’ve chiseled past all the unnecessary material to what’s underneath.

WHEN EVERYTHING GOES, YOU ARE THE REAL.
