More quotes by Seth Godin
I think if your goal is for everything to be okay, that's a mistake. To achieve that goal, the only obstacle you'd have to face tomorrow is to eliminate all risk ... I've made the decision that I'm never trying to make everything okay. I'm trying for there to be more loose ends, not fewer loose ends.

Make something happen today, before you go home, before the end of the week. Launch that idea, post that post, run that ad, call that customer. Go the edge, that edge you've been holding back from... and do it today. Without waiting for the committee or your boss or the market. Just go.

Seth Godin
A business owner is the boss, but it's a job, a place that is stable and profitable. An entrepreneur is an artist of sorts, throwing his/herself into impossible situations and seeking out problems that require heart and guts to solve. Both are fine, but choose.
Seth Godin
Most people are searching for a path to success that is both easy and certain. Most paths are neither.
Seth Godin
It's rare to find a consistently creative or insightful person who is also an angry person. They can't occupy the same space, and if your anger moves in, generosity and creativity often move out. It's difficult to use revenge or animus to fuel great work.
Seth Godin
No one can be responsible for where or how we each begin. No one has the freedom to do anything or everything, and all choices bring consequences. What we choose to do next, though, how to spend our resources or attention or effort, this is what defines us.
Seth Godin
Shame must be accepted to be effective.

The only path to amazing runs directly through not-yet-amazing
Seth Godin
'Good enough' stopped being good enough a long time ago. so why not be great?
Seth Godin
If you take action, you will be judged. There's no way around it. The alternative, of course, is much safer. To be ignored. Up to you.
Seth Godin
Learning is not done to you, it is something you choose to do.

Do you believe in what you do? Every day? It turns out that belief happens to be a brilliant strategy.
