100
Okay.
101
Of course not, says Seth Godin.
102
He says there's no plan.
103
No plan for perfect success.
104
No foolproof plan.
105
No certain plan.
106
But he says looking in our rearview mirror, we can always say, of course that worked.
107
Looking in our rearview mirror,
108
does that mean looking into the future or looking at the past?
109
Well, it means looking at the past.
110
Looking in our rearview mirror or looking in the rearview mirror means looking at the past.
111
Is it easy to see success when you look in the rearview mirror?
112
Yes, of course, right?
113
If you look in the rearview mirror, it's very easy to see success.
114
If you look at the past, it's easy to see success.
115
You say, oh, that was successful. That wasn't.
116
So when you look in the past, when you look in the rearview mirror, it's very easy to see success.
117
When you look in the future, is it easy to see success?
118
No, no, no, no, no. When you look in the future, it's very difficult to see success.
119
When you look in the future, it's very difficult to guess what will be successful.
120
So when is it easy to see success?
121
No, when you look in the rearview mirror, it's easy to see success.
122
When is it not easy?
123
When you look in the future.
124
When you look in the future, it's not easy to see success.
125
It's not easy to know what will be successful.
126
But when you look in the rearview mirror, when you look in the past, it's very easy to say, ah, that was successful, that wasn't.
127
Looking in the rearview mirror is very easy.
128
All right.
129
In fact, he says, by definition, a big success is something that was remarkable in just the right way.
130
When we take our eyes off the rearview mirror, when we stop looking at the past,
131
when we start to look to the future, creating a big success gets a lot more difficult.
132
Of course, looking in the past, it's easy to see success.
133
Looking to the future, it's difficult to predict.
134
It's difficult to know what will be successful.
135
So Seth Godin says, if you're looking for a plan, I'm sorry to tell you I don't have one.
136
So does he have a foolproof plan?
137
No, he doesn't have a foolproof plan.
138
He doesn't have a perfect plan.
139
He doesn't have a 100 % certain plan.
140
Who doesn't have a foolproof plan?
141
Seth Godin.
142
Seth Godin, the man who wrote this.
143
Seth Godin doesn't have a foolproof plan.
144
What does he have?
145
well he has a process he says i do have a process
146
i don't have a foolproof plan
147
i don't have a foolproof formula do this then do this
148
then do this then do this then do this he does not have a foolproof plan
149
but he does have a process he has a general way to think he has a general way to take action.
150
So what is Seth Godin's process?
151

170
Well, he wants you to go for the edges.
171
He wants you to be not average, not normal.
172
He wants you to be extreme, very, very different.
173
He says, challenge yourself and your team to describe what those edges are.
174
You need to think about what kind of edge, what kind of different will you be?
175
Will your price be very different?
176
Will your service be very different?
177
Will your appearance, your clothes be very different?
178
What edge will you go to?
179

In marketing, for example, marketing is similar to advertising.

Will you go to the edge with your marketing?
184
Will your product be very, very different?

186
In your career, how will you go to the edge?
187
How will you be very, very, very special?
188
Very, very, very extreme?
189
Very, very, very different?
190
Think about it.
191
Okay, would it be remarkable if your spa offered all its services for free?
192
Okay, well, would it be remarkable if you gave your services for free?
193
Yes, that would be very different, right?
194
If you gave your services for free, if you did your job for free, if you sold your product for free,
195
no money, that would be remarkable, sure.
196
It would be very, very different.
197
Would it be very different to do your job for free?
198
Yes, it would be remarkable.
199
It would be very different to do your job for free.
200
but without a financial model that supports that it's not clear that you'd last very long
201
is working for free a good financial model a good financial system a good financial plan
202
no not usually working for free is not usually a good financial model a good money model
203
Is working for free a good financial model or a dangerous financial model?
204
Well, for most people who are not rich, working for free is a dangerous financial model.
205
Why is it a dangerous financial model?
206
Well, because if you work for free, you get no money.
207
No money for food.
208
No money for your house.
209
No money for anything.
210
So you will starve.
211
You will not have any food.
212
So it's very dangerous.
213
Working for free is very dangerous.
214
It's a dangerous financial model.
215
Unless you're rich.
216
okay then he says seth godin says the jet blue company figured out how to get way over the edge
217
of both service and pricing with a business
218
that was also profitable okay did jet blue go over the edge or did they not go over the edge
219
well jet blue went way over the edge they went over the edge a lot which edges did they go over?
220
Well, they went over the service edge.
221
They were very, very different with their service.
222
And they went over the pricing edge.
223
They were very, very different with their pricing.
224
So which edges did they go over?
225
Service and pricing.
226
They went over the edge with service and pricing.
227
Who went over the edge with service and pricing?
228
JetBlue.
229
JetBlue went over the edge with both service and pricing. Was JetBlue profitable?
230
Yes, JetBlue was profitable.
231
They made money.
232

234
JetBlue was profitable.
235
They didn't lose money.
236
They made money.
237
JetBlue was very profitable.
238
So then Seth Godin says, it's not the plan that joins the big successes together.
239
He talks about Starbucks.
240
Starbucks determined, decided, how to redefine,
241
how to define again, what a cup of coffee meant in a very different way from the way JetBlue delivered their innovation.

They made coffee a way to meet friends,
252
a way to study, a way to have a business meeting,
253

254
a way to read books around other people they changed the meaning of coffee.
255
They changed how people drink coffee.
256
They changed the kind of coffee people like to drink.
257
Now many people drink lattes and mochas.
258
So they changed the meaning of coffee.
259
That's how Starbucks changed the meaning of coffee.
260
They redefined coffee.
261
Did Starbucks redefine coffee, or did
262
Starbucks redefine tea?
263

What did they redefine?
266
Coffee.
267
They redefined coffee.
268
Who redefined coffee?
269

270
okay and then Mr. Godin says it's not the plan
271
that joins the big successes together it's the process people use to discover the fringes that make their projects remarkable
272
the fringes meaning the edges the very different things
273
Okay, so the next paragraph.
274
Seth Godin is finished.
275
He says, Seth Godin, www .sethgodin .com.

315
What are your two choices in business, in your career?
316
One, do everything well and normal, but nothing remarkably.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
