[Video] Special Live Book Review: Linchpin by Seth Godin

Hello folks,

let me offer you  food for your souls before upcoming weekend.

Enjoy!

More take aways from Seth’s Linchpin reading adventure are:

  • I have got to know Anne Jackson and I have even ordered her book for Kindle. She is truly awesome human being. Subscribe to her blog, too!
  • I have found out who is behind design of an iPod (I didn’t know it before). Watch interview with  Jonathan Ive. Such a humble gentleman…and even handsome;-) True Linchpin.
  • I have got to read breath-taking story about  Ed Sutt and his invention of live saving nails.
  • I have watched movie Memento, guys it is really super cool one, watch it carefully;-)
  • I have listened to the art of Keller Williams, check him out  here. Hilarious! He is for sure ignoring his lizard brain, when walking bare footed on the stage;-)
  • Inspiring was also story of Frank Elliason from ComCast and his Linchpin approach to using Twitter, watch his speech about “why brands should be on Twitter”, here.
  • I have also enjoyed video by Sandy Pentland from MIT, where he was talking about honest signals, which as Seth has also mentioned in the book, are the only signals that travel.

Slovak blog about Linchpin will be online within tomorrow, just check in at.

cheers,

i.

P.S.: Gosh, I thought I have not said a fraction of what I wanted to share and yet, video is 10 minutes long;-)I don’t understand how Chris Brogan could make Linchpin book review video in less than 2 minutes? But that’s what is super cool about life, we all have our own ways of shipping;-)  Thank you for your art, Chris;-)

Fantasy or Future?

Kindle book with working hyper links. Future or fantasy?

Previous post on reading made me wonder, how super cool would that be, if :

Kindle e-books would include in the text working hyperlinks, which would take you straight to the website, wiki, blog, Youtube video or MP3 tune  after clicking on it in the text of the book itself. [Read more…]

[Video] About Reading Books

Guys, do you think that cliché : “Reading books  is boring and old fashioned”, is true?

Hmmm?;-) Let me do  my bit to turn around your perception. Let me know if I have succeeded?

Selection of  Lessons Learned, from Ken’s book ELEMENT

I have enjoyed to “know”  Debbie Allen and her page. I have tweeted her  famous quote:

You want fame. Well, fame costs. Right here is where you start to pay in sweat.

I have downloaded and listened to 2 amazing music albums:

  • Traveling Wilburys – their album was happy accidental meeting….As I always say: “There ain’t any coincidences in life.”
  • Miles Davis – Kind of Blue

I had a great experience by watching Black Ice poems on Youtube. WATCH HIM, TOO! He has loads to say.

I laughed out loud at Billy Connolly and his comedian bliss, again on Youtube.

Ladies, did you know that we can thank to hairstylist Vidal Sassoon for our blow dries?;-) Me neither, now I know.

Thanks to Ken I have got “introduced” to Arianna from Huffington Post. If you don’t use RSS, you can follow updates on Facebook too, just become fan, here.

I have watched inspiring words of  Marian Wright Edelman about Child Poverty in America, on Youtube.

And much more.

It is all up to you, what experiences you are looking for, when you read a book;-) This was mine.

Have a super cool week ahead.

[Video] Thoughts on Planning

Hi guys,

I didn’t have an idea that I will be shooting this video today, but morning’s Skype chat with my dear friend simply gave me impulse to sit in front of camera and record following 5 minutes.

He asked, me as many other people these days:

Ivana, do you have any plans at all?

My answer, is just click away.

cheers,

i.

P.S.: Even shooting this video was not planned, I have just felt it, did the best way I could and hopefully watching  it, made some of you – feel good;-)

Well invested time in January 2010

First month of 2010 was also spiced up with 4 amazing books, which I was blessed by reading them. There were  two “story pieces” and two, I would call them “wisdom pieces.” [Read more…]

[Video] Bodyguard for Your Dreams

I have been thinking about recording this video for quite some time. Yesterday, I came across inspirational scene from one of my all times favorite movies Pursuit of Happiness. And today I just felt “right” to shoot following video post.
