Emotional labor is available to all of us, but it is rarely exploited as a competitive advantage.
Seth Godin
Not only are bloggers suckers for the remarkable, so are the people who read blogs.
Seth Godin

Seth Godin
Is it worth getting one more tweet out, or putting your phone down and doing something that is worth tweeting?
Seth Godin
Great leaders create movements by empowering the tribe to communicate. They establish the foundation for people to make connections, as opposed to commanding people to follow them.
Seth Godin
Communication is the transfer of emotion.
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.

If you can raise money, you're never going to have trouble getting a job.
Seth Godin
Reputation is what people expect us to do next. It's their expectation of the quality and character of the next thing we produce or say or do. We control our actions (even when it feels like we don't) and our actions over time (especially when we think no one is looking) earn our reputation.
Seth Godin
The art, the new, the ability to connect the dots and to make an impact - sooner or later, that can only come from one who creates, not from a teacher and not from a book.
Seth Godin
Now, before sliced bread was invented in the 1910s I wonder what they said? Like the greatest invention since the telegraph or something. But... the thing about the invention of sliced bread is this - that for the first 15 years after sliced bread was available no one bought it no one knew about it it was a complete and total failure.
Seth Godin
How was your day? If your answer was fine, then I don't think you were leading.
Seth Godin
No more than six words on a slide. Ever. There is no presentation so complex that this rule needs to be broken.
Seth Godin
The person who fails the most wins.
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
All great programmers learn the same way. They poke the box. They code something and see what the computer does. They change it and see what the computer does. They repeat the process again and again until they figure out how the box works.
Seth Godin
Content marketing is the only marketing left
Seth Godin
My new favorite word is 'awkward.'...Th e reason we need to be in search of awkward is that awkward is the barrier between us and excellence, between where we are and the remarkable. If it were easy, everyone would have done it already, and it wouldn't be worth the effort.
