April 27, 2011 by Ivana Sendecka 11 Comments

Hello SCG,

I trust you had a very pleasant Easter break & you are charged up for shipping your art. Today’s shipment is a follow-up on the most recent Question Of The Week, where you were asked about your “NOT to – d0 list“. You might have noticed, that I have given you a slight clue, that there is a story behind this question. Therefore, I want to share with you one true story connected with this theme & I will tell you reason, why knowing your “dont’s” can save you loads of time, when in doubt. Plus as a bonus I will share with you current 5 items on my own NOT to-do list. Cheers! [Read more…]

[Updated] 27 Video Collection of Seth Godin’s Talks

March 8, 2011 by Ivana Sendecka 10 Comments

Hey SCG,

let me serve you a special video shipment, dedicated to a man who has inspired me, continuously inspires me & I bet that, he will carry on inspiring me on my journey. Yeah, you know him, too. I am talking about the Seth Godin. If you were too busy to read any of his books [he wrote 13 of them!] or following daily doses of Seth’s blog & you are not very familiar with his art (yet!) -> Now is your chance to catch up with Seth (or consider this as refresh on his philosophy you already know about). I suspect, that after watching following 10 videos of Seth, you ~~might~~ will be in the picture and on the same page with ~~those~~ us who ship, have guts to challenge a status quo and draw maps instead of following them. Enjoy! [Read more…]

Listen to Derek Sivers: “Why You Need to Fail”

February 16, 2011 by Ivana Sendecka 3 Comments

Hello SCG,

when I was contemplating ideas about today’s shipment one of them was so frequently talked/written about-> topic of failure. I have started to jot down 1st draft, when I came across by this amazing video posted on Youtube- Why We Need To Fail by my online (so far) friend Derek Sivers. Then, I simply trashed my draft and decided to sit & listen & learn from Derek. So, I will shut up now & let you enjoy Derek’s treat for-> us.

Why Turning Off Your Desires Can Be Good For You?

February 3, 2011 by Ivana Sendecka 13 Comments

Hey SCG,

2011 has started with really precious events for me and I hope,that lessons learned from it; will have an impact on you too. You might remember recent shipment about goals and its execution, in which I was encouraging you to do/ship/create/deliver rather than waste time on planning your actions. Recently I have been blessed with another epiphany moment of my life, after which I have started to free myself of desires (and by now, I can tell this is gonna be a lifelong path of aware observing of myself & of own thoughts every single day). Sounds horrifying? Possibly, yes. Do you want to know what has desireless mindset done for me? Carry on, reading then. [Read more…]

Mistakes Are Your Chance to Shine Out Others!

December 15, 2010 by Ivana Sendecka 5 Comments

Hi SCG,

I would like to share with you a story, which will support thought-provoking title above: “Mistakes are your chance to shine out others.”Huh? How come?, you might be asking. Here is a “mistake story”: One week ago, Michael Hyatt kept his word and package with book by Super Cool Gang-er Anne Jackson reached snowy Poprad. Reason, why all of that happened was because I have left comment on Mike’s blog post with a reason why I would like to read Anne’s book. Mike has picked 100 people with the most convincing why. (So after all, Simon Sinek is right, starting with why pays off) So, happy as I was to find package with the Anne’s newest book Permission to speak freely in my room. I was even more astonished today morning.
