If you're working with a spreadsheet or a thread of correspondence or a set of data, I'm not sure you're doing your best work if you're doing it on an iPhone.

More quotes by Seth Godin
In a digital world, the gift I give you almost always benefits me more than it costs.
Seth Godin
The key to success is to find a way to stand out--to be the purple cow in a field of monochrome Holsteins.
Seth Godin
If you speak up online and your ideas have currency, people are going to show up and want to connect with you. What we need more of are people with the guts and emotional labour to do this. The greatest shortage in today's society is an instinct to produce.
Seth Godin
I wonder if real art comes when you build the thing that they don't have a prize for yet.
Seth Godin
Don't create for the masses. Create for the people who are your kind of weird.
Seth Godin
Take the long way. Do the hard work, consistently and with generosity and transparency. And then you won't waste time doing it over.
Seth Godin
Doing justice to the work is your task, not setting a world record.
Seth Godin
Treat different people differently. Anything else is a compromise.
Seth Godin
If you can't make money from attention, you should do something else for a living.
Seth Godin
What are you working on? If someone asks you that, are you excited to tell them the answer? If you're not, you're wasting away.
Seth Godin
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
Perfect can't possibly be the goal, we're left with generous, important and human instead.
Seth Godin
Facts are irrelevant. What matters is what the consumer believes.
Seth Godin
Canoeing was hard and scary, and the wind could blow you across the lake if you did it wrong. After a year of not doing it right, I could talk to people and get them to sit up straight, take different kinds of chances, to breathe differently, to engage in the moment in the boat. And I changed them, and I changed me in the process.
Seth Godin
Great work is the result of seeking out tension, not avoiding it.
Seth Godin
Marketing is no longer about the stuff that you male, but about the stories you tell.
Seth Godin
Here's the truth you have to wrestle with: the reason that art (writing, engaging, leading, all of it) is valuable is precisely why I can't tell you how to do it. If there were a map, there'd be no art, because art is the act of navigating without a map. Don't you hate that? I love that there's no map.
Seth Godin
Excellence isn't about meeting the spec, it's about setting the spec.
Seth Godin
Competence is no longer a scarce commodity.
Seth Godin
Once you free yourself from the need for perfect acceptance, it's a lot easier to launch work that matters.
