More quotes by Seth Godin
More time [to decide] without more information just creates anxiety, not insight.
Seth Godin
Art is what we're doing when we do our best work.
Seth Godin
Many people believe that great designers get great clients. It's the other way around.
Seth Godin
Art is the work of a human, an individual seeking to make a statement, to cause a reaction, to connect. Art is something new, every time, and art might not work, precisely because it's new, because it's human and because it seeks to connect.
Seth Godin
And in a world where we have too many choices and too little time, the obvious thing to do is just ignore stuff. And my parable here is, you're driving down the road and you see a cow, and you keep driving 'cause you've seen cows before. Cows are invisible. Cows are boring. Who's going to stop and pull over and say, oh, look, a cow? Nobody.
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
Persistence isn't using the same tactics over and over. Persistence is having the same goal over and over.
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
If you believe that a given situation should make you unhappy, then it will, and the unhappiness will then reinforce the condition.
Seth Godin
A symptom of the revolution: When we state something is impossible in theory, but then change our minds when we discover that it is possible in practice.
Seth Godin
If you want customers to hear about you, make something worth talking about.
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
Habits are more powerful than fears.
Seth Godin
Instead of working so hard to prove the skeptics wrong, it makes a lot more sense to delight the true believers. They deserve it, after all, and they're the ones that are going to spread the word for you.
Seth Godin
Which are you?...competen t, inspiring, passionate, obsessed, provocative, impatient, hungry, driven, adoring, inspired, an artist, a genius, someone who cares...? With all these remarkable, powerful, important options available to each of us, why do so many of us default to competent?
Seth Godin
The best time to start promoting your book is three years before it comes out. Three years to build a reputation, build a permission asset, build a blog, build a following, build credibility and build the connections you'll need later.
Seth Godin
If you're in the idea business, it doesn't matter where you're from. It matters if we care about the change you're making.
Seth Godin
No, the only way to know what people think is to watch what they do, not what they say. Do they come back for more? Do you cause them to change their behavior? Can you make them smile?
Seth Godin
What tribes are, is a very simple concept that goes back 50 million years. It's about leading and connecting people and ideas. And it's something that people have wanted forever.
Seth Godin
Everyone will think it's stupid! Everyone says it's impossible. Guess what? Everyone works in the balloon factory and everyone is wrong.
