More quotes by Seth Godin
Being aware of your fear is smart. Overcoming it is the mark of a successful person.
Seth Godin
Habits are where our lives and careers and bodies are made.
Seth Godin
Just because the tide is out, doesn't mean there is less water in the ocean.
Seth Godin
Finding new ways, more clever ways to interrupt people doesn't work.
Seth Godin
You can game the social media in the short run, but not for long.
Seth Godin
As the amount of inputs go up, as the number of people and ideas that clamor for attention continue to increase, we do what people always do: we rely on the familiar, the trusted and the personal. The incredible surplus of digital data means that human actions, generosity and sacrifice are more important than they ever were before.
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
It's not an accident that successful people read more books.
Seth Godin
The enemy of creativity is fear.
Seth Godin
Many people believe that great designers get great clients. It's the other way around.
Seth Godin
Or, if I take that same auditorium and I make it much bigger and put more space between seats, it'll be quieter because it's much harder when you're not in physical contact with people to spread a virus from person-to-person, right? There are all sorts of patterns that we see in epidemiology that help us understand why something spreads.
Seth Godin
Give up control and give it away ... The more you give your idea away, the more your company is going to be worth.
Seth Godin
All the creativity books in the world aren’t going to help you if you’re unwilling to have lousy, lame, and even dangerously bad ideas.
Seth Godin
More time [to decide] without more information just creates anxiety, not insight.
Seth Godin
A brilliant author or businesswoman or senator or software engineer is brilliant only in tiny bursts. The rest of the time, they’re doing work that most any trained person could do.
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
Personalizatio n wasn't supposed to be a cleverly veiled way to chase prospects around the web, showing them the same spammy ad for the same lame stuff as everyone else sees. No, it is a chance to differentiate at a human scale, to use behavior as the most important clue about what people want and more important, what they need.
Seth Godin
Everyone is not your customer.
Seth Godin
Marketing is the art of seeing (and then creating) what might be interesting to more than our friends
Seth Godin
If we live in a world where information drives what we do, the information we get becomes the most important thing. The person who chooses that information has power.
