“Off The Air”

tv test pattternMad Men is one of the smartest shows on TV.

The Mad Men era is where it all began for the Baby Boomer trying to meet their unmet needs and their lack of fulfillment outside of themselves through a career, job, possession or a relationship … the list of medications goes on.

Advertising is based on one thing: happiness. And do you know what happiness is? Happiness is the smell of a new car. It’s freedom from fear. It’s a billboard on the side of a road that screams with reassurance that whatever you’re doing is OK. You are OK. – Don Draper ( played by Jon Hamm ), Mad Men

Mad Men is one of the few TV programs that I watch and a recent episode had a scene where a TV set was turned on yet the TV station had gone “off the air” and there was a TV Test Pattern on the screen.

In this day of 24/7, most TV stations broadcast around the clock and it is hard to imagine anything being off the air be it a cell phone, internet, radio or TV station.

I’m walking my talk this week as it is the last week of the month and I have a few days this week when I will be “off the air” from coaching and speaking so I can work on business and creative development.
