https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy Chapter 5 ends by sharing the ending quote from Claude Hopkins’ autobiography “The happiest are those who live closest to nature, an essential to advertising success.” Do you agree with this statement? What do you think this quote means? Especially coming from someone who is involved in advertising. en-us 2019-03-04 13:48:48 UTC 2019-03-10 23:51:57 UTC hello@padlet.com avtonioatkins https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/337951591 I agree with Hopkins statement because being close to nature means that you are not dealing with the stresses of society or technology. Coming from someone involved with advertising, I believe that Claude recognizes that success comes from connecting to more preemptive things like nature.]]> 2019-03-05 15:28:20 UTC https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/337951591 datkinsloyola https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/338010113 Isolating yourself from the stress of the world by returning to nature is a great way for self discovery and appreciation. By doing this, Hopkins is telling us that living such a life advertises success since you won't have the distractions of the internet to get in your way. ]]> 2019-03-05 17:02:44 UTC https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/338010113 jlwilder7 https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/338164989  I agree with this statement as nature provides a calming and less stressful lifestyle. I think from an advertising standpoint, since a calm and enjoyable lifestyle is something people strive for, their goal is to make their product appeal to this notion.]]> 2019-03-05 22:18:24 UTC https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/338164989 nicole_l_brown2 https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/338207045 Nature or natural, might be one's idealistic viewpoint about being happy. I don't believe this quote means don't ever watch another advertisement in your life. It's about balance and understanding when to ignore advertisements. Some advertisements can be very beneficial depending on a person's needs. ]]> 2019-03-06 01:52:52 UTC https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/338207045 sarahbuck784 https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339159940 The happiest people are the ones not sucked into false advertisements! But being by the beach makes me happy, so I would say it is possible to be happy living closet to nature.]]> 2019-03-08 02:14:56 UTC https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339159940 https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339274879 I agree with this quote because when people take away all of the distractions of life and artificial contents of life people are much more relaxed and appreciate the naturalness of nature. When in advertising, the more successful advertisements are the ones that are natural and not artificial. ]]> 2019-03-08 13:16:30 UTC https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339274879 kkerley1 https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339580936 I think that you are less likely to get suckered into things you don't need or want when you are close to nature. Not only do you not allow advertising to convince you, I think you are less likely to fall into peer pressure or feel it necessary to keep up with the Joneses. ]]> 2019-03-09 17:21:45 UTC https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339580936 aoswinkle https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339616594 When I think about people living closest to nature I think about the fact that they are not listening to the news, reading newspapers, or scrolling through social media as often as others, or at all. They are not being fooled, or pressured into buying or doing something that they do not need and are therefore happier. I agree with this statement and think that the quote means those that know what they need and do not need are more likely to be believe only the "best for you" advertisements.]]> 2019-03-10 00:36:20 UTC https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339616594 scinerd1 https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339619964 Hopkins is saying that what advertising sells is simplicity. Where you have everything you want and everything you need and you are surrounded by serenity. Modern advertising is often trying to sell you on making things easier for you, shortcuts.]]> 2019-03-10 01:29:29 UTC https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339619964 wplunkett https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339711901 I agree with Hopkins because life is slower and more relaxed when in nature. As reading this text, we learn that advertisements pull you in all different types of directions. There are so many things in our society today that are begging for our attention. But, when being closest to nature, we have time to reflect, which is essential to our own success.]]> 2019-03-10 18:02:29 UTC https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339711901 cwalther3 https://padlet.com/rfalloni/28vpk21tjqwy/wish/339754325 I agree because so many people buy things based off of advertisements that promise a false hope. If people are able to stick with the essentials they will be happier and less disappointed in what they are spending their money on.
