What Can You Learn From Salinger’s “Linchpin”: Holden Caulfield?

August 20, 2010 by 7 Comments

Hello SCG,

this is an emergency shipment with a book review of a novel which touched me deeply. This tiny book by J.D. Salinger blew my mind away. I know, I know many of you must have already read it during your school years, but for me it was first time “meeting with Salinger”  and I just want to express my gratitude for this “helluva” master-piece – The Catcher in the Rye.

Let me share with you THE quotes of novel’s 17 years old hero Holden Caulfield, which made me stick sticky notes into this treasure;

Do You Know Who Your “Sneezers” Are?

August 17, 2010 by 26 Comments

Hey SCG,

I am SO humbled , that I can “ship” today’s post. I have been waiting for this shipping moment for more than 6 months. Only now I feel eligible to introduce you a concept of sneezers.

Do you know who is a “sneezer”?

This term was brought into my  and world’s attention in March 2010 in a video-book= vook by THE Seth Godin – Unleashing the SuperIdeavirus.

Why did I have to wait for more than half a year to talk about sneezers? Well, because Inspiring Shipments (#IS) is a blog for doers and for those who can tell stories of walking the talk. I don’t talk theory, I talk about experienced experiences. Therefore,  let me share with you my story about sneezers, so you can get inspired and you too can reflect on: Why are “sneezers” important for you, for your business and for sustainable future of your art?

3+1 Reasons Why You Should NOT Miss Webpreneur University Gig

August 5, 2010 by 2 Comments

Hello from Dubai SCG.

Yes, I am still in this hot city, even though I “planned” to stay only for 5 days, I am finishing my second week, here. (You, see that is why I do not plan! I just flexibly adapt to situations/miracles/opportunities, which presents themselves in front of me) One of the miracle which made me prolong my stay in Dubai, was Webpreneur University Camp, which I have attended 2 weeks ago.  (Once again great thanks goes to Amir Anzur for making it happen). Tomorrow will be kick off for the last Webpreneur Uni Camp (6-7 Aug) before taking couple of months off. Therefore I would like to name 3 reasons, why I will not miss it and why you should not miss it too!;-) [Read more…]
