The weird set an example for the rest of us. They raise the bar. They show us through their actions that in fact we're wired to do the new, not to comply with someone a thousand miles away.

More quotes by Seth Godin
How was your day? If your answer was fine, then I don't think you were leading.
Seth Godin
The only reason to buy a paper book any longer is to own it and cherish it and remember it and tell a story about it.
Seth Godin
Figure out the people part and the technology gets a whole lot simpler.
Seth Godin
In a race, sooner or later there's a moment that separates the winner from those who don't win. That instant is your chance, the moment you've been waiting for.
Seth Godin
We have little choice but to move beyond quality and seek remarkable, connected, and new. Remarkable, as you've already figured out, demands initiative.
Seth Godin
Seek out habits that help you overcome fear or inertia. Destroy those that do the opposite.
Seth Godin
There's no map for being an artist.
Seth Godin
If you can influence the outcome, do the work. If you can't influence the outcome, ignore the possibility. It's merely a distraction.
Seth Godin
Being aware of your fear is smart. Overcoming it is the mark of a successful person.
Seth Godin
Fear for a linchpin is a clue that you're getting close to doing something important.
Seth Godin
If you want to be a leader, go lead
Seth Godin
If it scares you, it might be a good thing to try.
Seth Godin
We know what you want to accomplish... The real question is, 'what are you willing to push through the dip for?' What are you willing to stand up for, bleed for, commit to and generally be unreasonable about? Because that's what's going to actually get done.
Seth Godin
Habits are where our lives and careers and bodies are made.
Seth Godin
The only people who get paid what they're worth are people who don't follow the instruction book, who create art, who are innovative, who work without a map.
Seth Godin
Courage doesn't always involve physical heroism in the face of death. It doesn't always require giant leaps worthy of celebration. Sometimes, courage is the willingness to speak the truth about what you see and to own what you say.
Seth Godin
Don't create for the masses. Create for the people who are your kind of weird.
Seth Godin
Here's the truth you have to wrestle with: the reason that art (writing, engaging, leading, all of it) is valuable is precisely why I can't tell you how to do it. If there were a map, there'd be no art, because art is the act of navigating without a map. Don't you hate that? I love that there's no map.
Seth Godin
More process, less innovation. More operations, less innovation. More management, less innovation. More entrepreneurs, more innovation.
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.
