More quotes by Seth Godin
Don't scale because you think there's a pot of gold over that rainbow. Scale because you're ready and eager to do heroic work, every day, forever.
Seth Godin
The good news is that more than ever, value accrues to those that show up, those that make a difference, those that do work that matters.
Seth Godin
Empathy requires something extremely difficult: accepting the fact that we are not and never will be in the other person's shoes. There's no rational, universal course because individuals have different goals, different worldviews and different experiences.
Seth Godin
If you can't be remarkable, perhaps you should consider doing nothing until you can.
Seth Godin
Will you succeed because you are more well-rounded than others? Because you fit in better than everyone else? Bloody unlikely. We succeed when we are trusted to be the best at what we do.
Seth Godin
Little changes cost you. Big changes benefit you by changing the game, but only if you go first.
Seth Godin
I think creativity is better described as failing repeatedly until you get something right.
Seth Godin
The next thing you do today will be the most important thing on your agenda, because, after all, you're doing it next. Well, perhaps it will be the most urgent thing. Or the easiest. In fact, the most important thing probably isn't even on your agenda.
Seth Godin
Many Things That Are True Are True Because You Believe Them.
Seth Godin
Many people are starting to realize that they work a lot and that working on stuff they believe in (and making things happen) is much more satisfying then just getting a paycheck and waiting to get fired (or die).
Seth Godin
... outsiders are way more likely to approach your organization with fabulous projects if they think they're likely to both get a good reception and succeed when they get to market.
Seth Godin
It takes three years to be an overnight success, sometimes more.
Seth Godin
If you are afraid to write or edit or assemble or disassemble, you are merely a spectator. And you are trapped, trapped by the instructions of those you've chosen to follow. Twenty people in the field and eighty thousand in the stands. The spectators are the ones who paid to watch, but it's the player on the field who are truly alive.
Seth Godin
Seek out habits that help you overcome fear or inertia. Destroy those that do the opposite.
Seth Godin
You dont need to convince everyone. All you need to do is motivate people who choose to follow you.
Seth Godin
I think if your goal is for everything to be okay, that's a mistake. To achieve that goal, the only obstacle you'd have to face tomorrow is to eliminate all risk ... I've made the decision that I'm never trying to make everything okay. I'm trying for there to be more loose ends, not fewer loose ends.
Seth Godin
Don't have any meetings about your web strategy. Just do stuff. First you have to fail, then you can improve.
Seth Godin
The innovator creates a business where they are making money, even when they sleep.
Seth Godin
Two elements of successful leadership: a willingness to be wrong and an eagerness to admit it.
Seth Godin
Gifts are not favors. If you expect something in return, it's not a gift.
