More quotes by Seth Godin
I define anxiety as experiencing failure in advance.
Seth Godin
It's rare to find a consistently creative or insightful person who is also an angry person. They can't occupy the same space, and if your anger moves in, generosity and creativity often move out. It's difficult to use revenge or animus to fuel great work.
Seth Godin
Here's the fascinating part, call it the golden shoulder: We have no idea in advance who the great contributors are going to be. We know that there's a huge cohort of people struggling outside the boundaries of the curated, selected few, but we don't know who they are.
Seth Godin
If you take action, you will be judged. There's no way around it. The alternative, of course, is much safer. To be ignored. Up to you.
Seth Godin
If you can't make money from attention, you should do something else for a living.
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 only reason to buy a paper book any longer is to own it and cherish it and remember it and tell a story about it.
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
I think art is the ability to change people with your work, to see things as they are and then create stories, images, and interactions that change the marketplace.
Seth Godin
So sure, start with a slogan. But don't bother wasting any time on it if you're merely going for catchy. Aim for true instead.
Seth Godin
Learning is not watching a video, learning is taking action and seeing what happens.
Seth Godin
Somewhere in the world, someone is doing something that you decided couldn't be done.
Seth Godin
Courage doesn't always involve physical heroism in the face of death. It doesn't always require giant leaps worthy of celebration. Sometimes, courage is the willingness to speak the truth about what you see and to own what you say.
Seth Godin
Just because something is easy to measure doesn't mean it's important.
Seth Godin
The weird set an example for the rest of us. They raise the bar. They show us through their actions that in fact we're wired to do the new, not to comply with someone a thousand miles away.
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
Persistence isn't using the same tactics over and over. Persistence is having the same goal over and over.
Seth Godin
The goal, then, isn't to draw some positioning charts and announce that you have differentiated your product. No, the opportunity is to actually create something that people choose to talk about, regardless of what the competition is doing.
Seth Godin
Most people are searching for a path to success that is both easy and certain. Most paths are neither.
Seth Godin
If it scares you, it might be a good thing to try.
