You can game the social media in the short run, but not for long.
Seth Godin
As long as you want to please everyone, you won't please anyone.
Seth Godin
I think the most productive thing to do during times of change is to be your best self, not the best version of someone else.
Seth Godin
The enemy of creativity... is fear. We're all born creative, it takes a little while to become afraid. A surprising insight: an enemy of fear is creativity. Acting in a creative way generates action, and action persuades the fear to lighten up.
Seth Godin
If you can raise money, you're never going to have trouble getting a job.
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
If we live in a world where information drives what we do, the information we get becomes the most important thing. The person who chooses that information has power.
Seth Godin
The time to look for a new job is when you don't need one. The time to switch jobs is before it feels comfortable.
Seth Godin
Don't try to be the 'next'. Instead, try to be the other, the changer, the new.
Seth Godin
There's no correlation between how good your idea is and how likely your organization will be to embrace it.
Seth Godin
Competition and the market are like water, they go where they want
Seth Godin
The resistance is not something to be avoided, it's something to seek out.
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
Quality is not an absolute measure. It doesn't mean 'deluxeness' or 'perfection'. It means keeping the promise the customer wants you to make.
Seth Godin
We've greatly exaggerated the risk of sinking, without celebrating the value of swimming.
Seth Godin
The reason it seems that price is all your customers care about is that you haven't given them anything else to care about.
Seth Godin
The sound of a small bell during a dark night, is louder than the din of traffic outside your window during rush hour. Surprise and differentiation have far more impact than noise does.
Seth Godin
Your audacious life goals are fabulous. We're proud of you for having them. But it's possible that those goals are designed to distract you from the thing that's really frightening you--the shift in daily habits that would mean a re-invention of how you see yourself.
Seth Godin
Where do you go to get permission to make a dent in the Universe ? If you think there's a chance you can make a dent, go !
Seth Godin
Too often, we don't give people the opportunity to fill in the blanks.
Seth Godin
