More quotes by Seth Godin
Acknowledge to yourself that the factory job is dead. Having a factory job is not a natural state. It wasn't at the heart of being human until very recently. We've been culturally brainwashed.
Seth Godin
It's uncomfortable to challenge the status quo.
Seth Godin
A brand that stands for what all brands stand for stands for nothing much.
Seth Godin
If you treat your employees like mushrooms (keep them in the dark and regularly throw crap on them), it's entirely likely you will get precisely the work you deserve in return.
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
The reason you might choose to embrace the artist within you now is that this is the path to (cue the ironic music) security.
Seth Godin
Or, if I take that same auditorium and I make it much bigger and put more space between seats, it'll be quieter because it's much harder when you're not in physical contact with people to spread a virus from person-to-person, right? There are all sorts of patterns that we see in epidemiology that help us understand why something spreads.
Seth Godin
The Cul-de-Sac ( French for dead end ) ... is a situation where you work and work and work and nothing much changes
Seth Godin
The digital asset that matters is trust. Awareness first, then interaction, and maybe a habit, but all three mean nothing if they don't lead to permission and trust. The privilege of connection. Everything else is slippery.
Seth Godin
Don't scale because you think there's a pot of gold over that rainbow. Scale because you're ready and eager to do heroic work, every day, forever.
Seth Godin
The world is begging for you to lead.
Seth Godin
Go do something interesting. Ask if you need help.
Seth Godin
Playing safe is very risky.
Seth Godin
Effort is its own reward if you allow it to be.
Seth Godin
Real content marketing isn’t repurposed advertising, it is making something worth talking about.
Seth Godin
Marketing is no longer about the stuff that you male, but about the stories you tell.
Seth Godin
A well-defined backup plan is sabotage waiting to happen. Why push through the dip, why take the risk, why blow it all when there's the comfortable alternative instead? The people who break through usually have nothing to lose, and they almost never have a backup plan.
Seth Godin
Life is not about gutting out every situation. It's about identifying opportunity or the lack thereof. If your pride is all that is standing in the way of quitting, quit. The right people won't care and the wrong people don't matter. If you know you're on the right path, persevere though the pain. It will be worth it.
Seth Godin
The mirror we hold up to the person next to us is one of the most important pictures she will ever see.
Seth Godin
The resistance is the voice in your head telling you to use bullets in your PowerPoint slides...It’s the voice that tells you to leave controversial ideas out of the paper you’re writing, because the teacher won’t like them. The resistance pushes relentlessly for you to fit in.
