More quotes by Seth Godin
Care. Care more than you need to, more often than expected, more completely than the other guy.
Seth Godin
Too often, we don't give people the opportunity to fill in the blanks.
Seth Godin
Successful people are successful for one simple reason: they think about failure differently.
Seth Godin
If you try to delight the undelightable, you've made yourself miserable for no reason.
Seth Godin
Competence is the enemy of change!
Seth Godin
When your art fails, make better art.
Seth Godin
Every day I meet people who have so much to give but have been...frighten ed enough to hold it back. It's time to stop complying with the system and draw your own map. You have brilliance in you, your contribution is essential, and the art you create is precious. Only you can do it, and you must.
Seth Godin
Art changes posture and posture changes innocent bystanders.
Seth Godin
What I mean by art is the human act of doing something that connects us to someone else
Seth Godin
Once you have permission to talk to someone, finding new products or services for them is a smart way to grow.
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
Competition validates you. It creates a category. It permits the sale to be this or that, not yes or no.
Seth Godin
Don’t do it because it’s your job, do it because you can.
Seth Godin
There's no life-work balance. I think you have to have the discipline to have the life you want to have. And if you are stealing from one part of your life in order to make the other part work, you are going to pay for it.
Seth Godin
Excellence isn’t about working extra hard to do what you’re told. It’s about taking the initiative to do work you decide is worth doing.
Seth Godin
You don't need more time in your day. You need to decide.
Seth Godin
But what if I fail? You will. A better question might be, ‘after I fail, what then?’ If you’ve chosen well, after you fail you will be one step closer to succeeding, you will be wiser and stronger and you almost certainly will be more respected by all of those that are afraid to try.
Seth Godin
Where do you put the fear when you choose to innovate? The fear is there, but you have to find a place to put it.
Seth Godin
Every voice doesn't matter--only the voices that move your idea forward, that make it better, that make you better, that make it more likely you will ship work that benefits your tribe.
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
