More quotes by Seth Godin
The best marketing strategy is to destroy your industry before your competition does.
Seth Godin
A business owner is the boss, but it's a job, a place that is stable and profitable. An entrepreneur is an artist of sorts, throwing his/herself into impossible situations and seeking out problems that require heart and guts to solve. Both are fine, but choose.
Seth Godin
Just because something is easy to measure doesn't mean it's important.
Seth Godin
Emotional labor is available to all of us, but it is rarely exploited as a competitive advantage.
Seth Godin
If you want to get in shape, go to the # gym every single day, change your clothes and take a shower. If you can do that every single day for a month, pretty soon you'll start doing something while you're there.
Seth Godin
Somewhere in the world, someone is doing something that you decided couldn't be done.
Seth Godin
No, the only way to know what people think is to watch what they do, not what they say. Do they come back for more? Do you cause them to change their behavior? Can you make them smile?
Seth Godin

Seth Godin
What I learned: Shun nonbelievers. Ignore critics. Do your best for people who want to dance with you.
Seth Godin
Don't fix me Love me for what's broken.
Seth Godin
Making an average pitch to average people, or having an average gala for average people isn't going to scale anymore. You've got to find the people who care. Those people are worth all of your time.
Seth Godin
The application process changes the list of who applies. Your applicants reflect your methods.
Seth Godin
Average feels safe but it's not. It's invisible.
Seth Godin
You don't become indispensable merely because you are different. But the only way to become indispensable is to be different. That's because if you're the same, so are plenty of other people.
Seth Godin
Tell your lizard (brain) to shut up.
Seth Godin
Your best customers are worth far more than your average customers.
Seth Godin
In nearly every case, trying to lead everyone results in leading no one in particular.
Seth Godin
I believe that uncertainty is really my spirit's way of whispering, I'm in flux. I can't decide for you. Something is off-balance here.
Seth Godin
The time to look for a new job is when you don't need one. The time to switch jobs is before it feels comfortable.
Seth Godin
Just as we don't spend a lot of time worrying about how all those poets out there are going to monetize their poetry, the same is true for most bloggers.
