Be relentlessly generous, without focusing on when it will come back to you.
Seth Godin
Image
If you try to delight the undelightable, you've made yourself miserable for no reason.
Seth Godin
Image
I don't think we have any choice. I think we have an obligation to change the rules, to raise the bar, to play a different game, and to play it better than anyone has any right to believe is possible.
Seth Godin
Image
Persistence isn't using the same tactics over and over. Persistence is having the same goal over and over.
Seth Godin
Image
If you're going to invest a valuable asset (like time), go ahead and make it productive. Use a postit or two, or some index cards or a highlighter. Not to write down stuff so you can forget it later, but to create marching orders. It's simple: if three weeks go by and you haven't taken action on what you've written down, you wasted your time.

Here's the thing: The book that will most change your life is the book you write.

Image
You succeed because you've chosen to be confident. It's not really useful to require yourself to be successful before you're able to become confident.
Seth Godin
Image
Be bold, make mistakes, learn a lesson, and fix what doesn't work.

Image
You don't need more time in your day. You need to decide.

Art is what we do when we're truly alive.
Seth Godin

More time [to decide] without more information just creates anxiety, not insight.
Seth Godin
Image
The combination of passion and art is what makes someone a linchpin.
Seth Godin

Your audacious life goals are fabulous. We're proud of you for having them. But it's possible that those goals are designed to distract you from the thing that's really frightening you--the shift in daily habits that would mean a re-invention of how you see yourself.
Seth Godin
Image
I think the most productive thing to do during times of change is to be your best self, not the best version of someone else.
Seth Godin
Image
The key to getting a reputation for being brilliant is actually being brilliant, not just acting like you are.
Seth Godin
Image
The only long-term motivation is self motivation. So hire people who are self motivated and get out of their way.
Seth Godin
Image
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.

If you're not willing to face the abyss of choice, you will almost certainly not spend enough time dancing with opportunity.
Seth Godin
Image
I do not think you can get rid of the fear... but you can dance with it.

Great leaders create movements by empowering the tribe to communicate. They establish the foundation for people to make connections, as opposed to commanding people to follow them.
