The art, the new, the ability to connect the dots and to make an impact - sooner or later, that can only come from one who creates, not from a teacher and not from a book.
Seth Godin
Image
The minute there's a map, there is no art. Paint by numbers is not art. Paint by numbers is a mechanical activity.
Seth Godin
Image
Persistence isn't using the same tactics over and over. Persistence is having the same goal over and over.

Either you defend the status quo, or you invent the future.

Image
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.

If it were any other way, it would be easy. And if it were any other way, everyone would do it and your work would ultimately be devalued. The yin and yang are clear: without people pushing against your quest to do something worth talking about, it's unlikely it would be worth the journey. Persist.

If you use your money to create exceptional products and services, you won't need to spend it on advertising.

The habit of doing more than is necessary can only be earned through practice.
Seth Godin
Image
As the amount of inputs go up, as the number of people and ideas that clamor for attention continue to increase, we do what people always do: we rely on the familiar, the trusted and the personal. The incredible surplus of digital data means that human actions, generosity and sacrifice are more important than they ever were before.

Marketing is the way your people answer the phone, the typesetting on your bills and your return policy.

As our society gets more complex and our people get more complacent, the role of the jester is more vital than ever before. Please stop sitting around. We need you to make a ruckus.

The way to work with a bully is to take the ball and go home. First time, every time. When there's no ball, there's no game. Bullies hate that. So they'll either behave so they can play with you or they'll go bully someone else.

Play a new game, not the older game but faster.
