Seth Godin
Think big. Start small.
Seth Godin
believe that giving up is the same thing as being realistic.
Seth Godin

Seth Godin
Canoeing was hard and scary, and the wind could blow you across the lake if you did it wrong. After a year of not doing it right, I could talk to people and get them to sit up straight, take different kinds of chances, to breathe differently, to engage in the moment in the boat. And I changed them, and I changed me in the process.
Seth Godin
The only reason to buy a paper book any longer is to own it and cherish it and remember it and tell a story about it.
Seth Godin
Doing justice to the work is your task, not setting a world record.
Seth Godin
Low price is a great way to sell a commodity. That's not marketing though, that's efficiency.
Seth Godin
You dont need to convince everyone. All you need to do is motivate people who choose to follow you.
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.
Seth Godin
Don't waste time looking for a better pencil: learn to write better.
Seth Godin
There's no shortage of great ideas. There's a shortage of execution.
Seth Godin
That's your opportunity - to approach your work in a way that generates unique learning and interactions that are worth sharing.
Seth Godin
If it's work, we try to figure out how to do less, If it's art, we try to figure out how to do more
Seth Godin
Confusion sets in when you're not sure if your product or service is bought or sold, or worse, if you are a salesperson just waiting for people to buy.
Seth Godin
Art is the act of doing work that matters while dancing with the voice in your head that screams for you to stop.
Seth Godin
You gain converts by winning at something the existing provider didn't think was so important.
Seth Godin
The mirror we hold up to the person next to us is one of the most important pictures she will ever see.
Seth Godin
If you try to delight the undelightable, you've made yourself miserable for no reason.
Seth Godin
If it were any other way, it would be easy. And if it were any other way, everyone would do it and your work would ultimately be devalued. The yin and yang are clear: without people pushing against your quest to do something worth talking about, it's unlikely it would be worth the journey. Persist.
