More quotes by Seth Godin
In nearly every case, trying to lead everyone results in leading no one in particular.
Seth Godin
Incrementalism ceases to be a good strategy when there's a cliff on the route.
Seth Godin
The goal of a marketing interaction isn't to close the sale, any more than the goal of a first date is to get married. No, the opportunity is to move forward, to earn attention and trust and curiosity and conversation.
Seth Godin
The easiest way to thrive as an outlier is to avoid being one. At least among your most treasured peers. Surround yourself with people in at least as much of a hurry, at least as inquisitive, at least as focused as you are.
Seth Godin
Discomfort brings engagement and change. Discomfort means you're doing something that others were unlikely to do, because they're hiding out in the comfortable zone. When your uncomfortable actions lead to success, the organization rewards you and brings you back for more.
Seth Godin
Where do you go to get permission to make a dent in the Universe ? If you think there's a chance you can make a dent, go !
Seth Godin
Good marketers measure.
Seth Godin
The problem with requiring people to be loud and angry to get things done is that you're now surrounded by people who are loud and angry.
Seth Godin
Our best work can't possibly appeal to the average masses, only our average work can. Finding the humility to happily walk away from those that don't get it unlocks our ability to do great work.
Seth Godin
As creators, our pursuit of perfection might be misguided, particularly if it comes at the expense of the things that matter.
Seth Godin
Our job is to make change. Our job is to connect to people, to interact with them in a way that leaves them better than we found them, more able to get where they'd like to go. Every time we waste that opportunity, every page or sentence that doesn't do enough to advance the cause is waste.
Seth Godin
Your drudgery is another person's delight. It's only a job if you treat it that way. The privilege to do our work, to be in control of the promises we make and the things we build, is something worth cherishing.
Seth Godin
You can game the social media in the short run, but not for long.
Seth Godin
Where do you put the fear when you choose to innovate? The fear is there, but you have to find a place to put it.
Seth Godin
While you may have made money doing something a certain way yesterday, there's no reason to believe you'll succeed at it tomorrow.
Seth Godin
You cannot buy your way to share of voice today you cannot buy attention anymore.
Seth Godin
The person who fails the most wins.
Seth Godin
If you work in an urgent-only culture, the only solution is to make the right things urgent.
Seth Godin
It always feels too soon to leap. But you have to. Because that's the moment between you and remarkable.
Seth Godin
If you've got the platform and the ability to make a difference, then this goes beyond 'should' and reaches the level of 'must.' You must make a difference or you squander the opportunity. Wasting the opportunity both degrades your own ability to contribute and, more urgently, takes something away from the rest of us.
