More quotes by Seth Godin
Just saying yes because you can't bear the short-term pain of saying no is not going to help you do the work.
Seth Godin
When the legacy you leave behind lasts for hours, days or a lifetime, you matter.
Seth Godin
Do your art. But don't wreck your art if it doesn't lend itself to paying the bills. That would be a tragedy.
Seth Godin
Why do we value leadership, connection and grace? Because it's scarce, and that scacity creates value.
Seth Godin
Listen to your fear but don't obey it.
Seth Godin
When you think about Uber and Airbnb and the other companies that are turning things upside down, Uber isn't big 'cause they ran a lot of ads. They're big because someone took out their iPhone and said to their friend, watch this, and pressed a button and a car pulled up.
Seth Godin
Marketing yourself to a new person often involves being charismatic, clever and quick-but most jobs and most relationships are about being consistent, persistent and brave.
Seth Godin
Most people are searching for a path to success that is both easy and certain. Most paths are neither.
Seth Godin
The cost of being wrong is less than the cost of doing nothing.
Seth Godin
All Marketers are liars tell stories.
Seth Godin
Great projects, like great careers and relationships that last, are gardens. They are tended, they shift, they grow. They endure over time, gaining a personality and reflecting their environment. When something dies or fades away, we prune, replant and grow again.
Seth Godin
Facts are irrelevant. What matters is what the consumer believes.
Seth Godin
Things that look like shortcuts are actually detours (disguised as less work).
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
Just start. Start now. Fail often. Enjoy the ride.
Seth Godin
School is at its best when it gives students the expectation that they will not only dream big, but dream dreams that they can work on every day until they accomplish them-not because they were chosen by a black-box process, but because they worked hard enough to reach them.
Seth Godin
It always feels too soon to leap. But you have to. Because that's the moment between you and remarkable.
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.
Seth Godin
We've greatly exaggerated the risk of sinking, without celebrating the value of swimming.
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.
