And once the child starts thinking about this mess he begins to disintegrate as a child and turns into something else--an adult, an animal.”

Alas, that pattern is awfully dangerous. The current marketing “rules” will ultimately lead to failure. In a crowded marketplace, fitting in is failing. In a busy marketplace, not standing out is the same as being invisible.”
