More quotes by Seth Godin
A tribe is a group of people connected to one another, connected to a leader, and connected to an idea. For millions of years, human beings have been part of one tribe or another. A group needs only two things to be a tribe: a shared interest and a way to communicate.

Transferring your passion to your job is far easier than finding a job that happens to match your passion.
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
What you do for a living is not be creative, what you do for a living is ship.
Seth Godin
Emotional labor is available to all of us, but it is rarely exploited as a competitive advantage.

... outsiders are way more likely to approach your organization with fabulous projects if they think they're likely to both get a good reception and succeed when they get to market.

I think if your goal is for everything to be okay, that's a mistake. To achieve that goal, the only obstacle you'd have to face tomorrow is to eliminate all risk ... I've made the decision that I'm never trying to make everything okay. I'm trying for there to be more loose ends, not fewer loose ends.

Your art is the act of taking personal responsibility, challenging the status quo, and changing people.
Seth Godin
Do you know what people want more than anything? They want to be missed. They want to be missed the day they don't show up. They want to be missed when they're gone.
Seth Godin
The problem with taking offense is that it's really hard to figure out what to do with it after you're done using it. Better to just leave it on the table and walk away. Umbrage untaken quietly disappears.
Seth Godin
Learning is not done to you, it is something you choose to do.
Seth Godin
If you are afraid to write or edit or assemble or disassemble, you are merely a spectator. And you are trapped, trapped by the instructions of those you've chosen to follow. Twenty people in the field and eighty thousand in the stands. The spectators are the ones who paid to watch, but it's the player on the field who are truly alive.
Seth Godin
When the legacy you leave behind lasts for hours, days or a lifetime, you matter.
Seth Godin
One key to moving forward is knowing what to leave behind.
Seth Godin
If you've got the platform and the ability to make a difference, then this goes beyond 'should' and reaches the level of 'must.' You must make a difference or you squander the opportunity. Wasting the opportunity both degrades your own ability to contribute and, more urgently, takes something away from the rest of us.
Seth Godin
Every single important thing we do is something we didn't use to be good at, and in fact, might be something we used to fear.
Seth Godin
By all means, fire the customers who aren't worth the time and the trouble. But understand that the moment you insist the customer is wrong, you've just started the firing process.
Seth Godin
The only thing worse than starting something and failing... is not starting something.
