More quotes by 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.

Rehearsing failure is simply a bad habit, not a productive use of your time. When you choose to visualize the path that works, you're more likely to shore it up and create an environment where it can take place.
Seth Godin
All good ideas are terrible... Until people realize they are obvious. If you're not willing to live through the terrible stage, you'll never get to the obvious part.
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
The less people know, the more they yell.
Seth Godin
Being a leader gives you charisma. If you look and study the leaders who have succeeded, that's where charisma comes from, from the leading.
Seth Godin
It's almost impossible to have fun playing ping pong with someone who doesn't care, won't try or isn't any good.
Seth Godin
We've greatly exaggerated the risk of sinking, without celebrating the value of swimming.
Seth Godin
Organizations that destroy the status quo win. Whatever the status quo is, changing it gives you the opportunity to be remarkable.
Seth Godin
Art is a personal act of courage, something one human does that creates change in another.
Seth Godin
Mass attention is almost unattainable and it's not clear that you want it.
