The Tick Tock Project - What is It

Ever wonder how many times a day you ask yourself "what time is it?" and look at your watch? Ever wonder how many people around the world each day do the exact same thing? It really is a very common daily ritual! It's a part of our lives! Besides that, watches (tick tocks) have certainly become a dress item, and very fashionable. In fact, don't you just feel naked when you walk out of the house and forget to put your watch on? I know I do and when I do I just feel like I've left part of me behind. My hand feels awkward, like it's missing something! Crazy isn't it?

A watch tells you something about the person who owns and wears it. It tells you something about what they like, their personality and style. If it was a present then a watch might also tell you something about the person who gifted it to you, perhaps something about their impression or their interpretation of what you like or who you are, and what's your style.

But is there anything else that comes out of this?

Join me on this global journey about the ubiquitous tick tock and let's find out. My hunch is that there are some surprises instore for all of us!!! In the next post I will explain how you can participate.

The Tick Tock Project - Launch

What do people like the following celebrities, friends and foes, sports stars and world leaders all have in common? Then ask yourself what you may have in common with them!

Bad Girls Gone Wild? Do they...?

Apart from a bad choice in clothing at inopportune moments, do the sexy 1 Night in Paris girl, Paris Hilton, the Baby One More Time provocatively dressed girl Britney Spears and Lindsay Lohan of the Mean Girls have something in common? Yes they sure do!

What about these Friends and Foes?

We know that they're more careful about their attire than the Bad Girls, but what about Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston, do they share something in common with the girls mentioned above? Yes they certainly do but we know its not about the babies!

And the Many Others in Hollywood and the Film Industry?

Like Meg Ryan, Julianne Moore of Clarice Starling fame in Hannibal and Nicole Kidman, Sex and the City girl Sarah Jessica Parker, Cindy Crawford and Gwyneth Paltrow, and then there's James Bond, Jack Nicholson, George Clooney, and Nicolas Cage, and Keanu Reeves, Ben Chaplin and Mathew McConaughey. Do they? Yes they sure do!

And those from the World of Sports?

Including former Manchester United champion footballer David Beckham, Michael Schumacher, Ernie Els and Sergio Garcia, Ian Thorpe and Pat Rafter. They definitely do.

World Leaders?

Oh yes, allies Tony Blair, George W Bush and John Howard, and Jacques Chirac, Wen Jiabao and even Pak Pong Ju are in it to and half of them don't even get along!

But the question is do you?

Do you have something in common with all of the above? More than likely you do and this is what The Tick Tock Project is all about. You have the opportunity to participate. Interested? If so stay tuned!
