More quotes by Seth Godin
The key to success is to find a way to stand out--to be the purple cow in a field of monochrome Holsteins.
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
An organization filled with honest, motivated, connected, eager, learning, experimenting, ethical and driven people will always defeat the one that merely has talent. Every time.
Seth Godin
Build it, and they will come only works in the movies. Social Media is a build it, nurture it, engage them, and they may come and stay.
Seth Godin
The problem with holding a grudge is that your hands are then too full to hold onto anything else. It might be the competition or a technology or the lousy things that someone did a decade ago. None of it is going to get better as a result of revisiting the grudge.
Seth Godin
The question is not Will you succeed? but rather, Will you matter?
Seth Godin
You can use social media to turn strangers into friends, friends into customers and customers into salespeople.
Seth Godin
Facts are irrelevant. What matters is what the consumer believes.
Seth Godin
The first step toward becoming extraordinary is, of course, to stop being ordinary.
Seth Godin
All motivation is self-motivation. Your family, your boss, or your co-workers can try to get your engine going, but until you decide what to accomplish, nothing will happen.
Seth Godin
Loving what you do is almost as important as doing what you love, especially if you need to make a living at it.
Seth Godin
Surprise comes from defying expectations.
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
Leadership is scarce because few people are willing to go through the discomfort required to lead.
Seth Godin
Blaming the system is soothing because it lets you off the hook. But when the system is broken, we wonder why you were relying in the system in the first place.
Seth Godin
More time [to decide] without more information just creates anxiety, not insight.
Seth Godin
Set up a life you don't need to escape from.
Seth Godin
My blogging life is basically goalless. I like the zen nature of that, and paradoxically, it improves results.
Seth Godin
Don't wait to be picked. Pick yourself.
Seth Godin
It's human nature to quit when it hurts. But it's that reflex that creates scarcity.
