What associations do you have please?
« on: October 14, 2018, 05:02:23 am »
Hello,

May I ask you to put down your association with the following words?

Hotel
Fort
Legend
Atmosphere
Service
Uniqueness
Comfort
Poetry
Emotions
Details
Soul

For example mine for a legend : legend- myth-imagination-creativity-association-concept
It might help me a lot.

Thank you

So status, How is your day?  :)

Or would your associations be similar every day?

@ Status LOL !
@ Susan are you worried?
@Blonde, no chance. Nobody seems to like to associate his thoughts anymore. Are you doing some kind of special course in hospitality science?

Nope, I do the startup. It's interesting but very specific one. I always think a lot about psychological issues when writing the concept, sales kit, and material for teaching my staff. It's about to be successful in marketing. It's about our brand-book as well. It's about " creating the soul of the project".  I can't rely only on my associations. The more people with different age, backgrounds and mentality (nationalities) might take part, the higher the chance to get the various information I get.

Thank you very much, Grzybek <3 You are supportive and helpful as usual. I really appreciate it.

I tried, Blonde. I am sorry it sounds like a brochure for the Swiss national Tourism Office.
Having been brought up in this milieu , I relate everything to it.

Hotel - Five stars, only the best is good enough
Fort - Switzerland and his hidden forts during WWII
Legend - César Ritz a Swiss peasant son who migrated to Paris and London and became a famous hotelier (king of hoteliers and hotelier to kings)
Atmosphere - unique, up in the Alps
Service - the best personnel comes from Spain, they are never excessively servile but always attentive
Uniqueness- our product of course! We excel.
Comfort - a firm mattress and an excellent reading lamp and a heating/cooling system regulated individually
Poetry - Byron whose poems (the Prisoner of Chillon) brought his countrymen toSwitzerland and launched tourism in the Alps.
Emotions - freedom, happiness, fresh air
Details- everything counts
Soul - tradition, authenticity
Still learning some languages.

@Status,

That’s hilarious. Everything ends in death, ****, murder or suicide. It´s like a day without Status`s associations is a day without sunshine!  :)

That was really clever. But, I do think you make a good point. As I heard a well-known person say once, „The world is so full of pain.“

It`s sad but true.

Blonde,

And sorry I can`t be as witty as Status, but these word association games remind me of sitting in a psychiatrist`s office and being psycho-analyzed or something. Too much thought required.  :)

You did pass Neal. I bit more upbeat I must say that Status, but good associations. Hers were a bit on the dark side, but clever I must say.

By the was, how did my r a p e word get deleted but Status`s didn’t? I do like her optimism about life.  :)

Blonde,

I didn’t know you were back on Italki.

Guyomar had some nice associations.

Blonde,

You mean you weren’t that thrilled with Status `associations? They were all about death, kind of. A little dark but kinda fun  :)

I'll tell you how to circumvent the censorship but it's going to cost you.

I already handed out the trick to you, people - along with Paweł - but you just don't listen. This time this will cost you. And I bet you'll remember, having paid for it.

Hotel  a key. You must not lose it.
Fort  stones. You never be able to build it without them.
Legend samurai. You never be able to see them in Japan any more.
Atmosphere   good and bad, easy and difficult, but you are able to change it.
Service  effort. Even if it is in church.
Uniqueness   difference that some people don't understand but you think you are normal.
Comfort   sharing. You can give it to others and also you are given.
Poetry  sadness. When people are sad, they produce beautiful poems.
Emotions    creatures. Human.The things which robots don't have.
Details   small, long, annoying and troublesome but it's important after all.
Soul    My father who passed away when I was 25.
Soul   matching. that you feel special when you meet someone who is right to you without words. No words but soul, mind.

I wish you would say how to circumvent the censorship, Status,  because I guess I forgot. You said Pawel mentioned it too, but again I forgot whatever he said.
