More quotes by Seth Godin
In nearly every case, trying to lead everyone results in leading no one in particular.
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
Care. Care more than you need to, more often than expected, more completely than the other guy.
Seth Godin
If there isn't a good reason, go home. If there is, then do something ... loud, now, and memorable.
Seth Godin
Success brings with it the fear of blowing it. With more to lose, there's more pressure not to lose it.
Seth Godin
Good marketers measure.
Seth Godin
Organizations that destroy the status quo win. Whatever the status quo is, changing it gives you the opportunity to be remarkable.
Seth Godin
I define anxiety as experiencing failure in advance.
Seth Godin
Discomfort brings engagement and change. Discomfort means you're doing something that others were unlikely to do, because they're hiding out in the comfortable zone. When your uncomfortable actions lead to success, the organization rewards you and brings you back for more.
Seth Godin
Mostly, the best way to be the next Mark Zuckerberg is to make difficult choices.
Seth Godin
Everyone is not your customer.
Seth Godin
All motivation is self-motivation. Your family, your boss, or your co-workers can try to get your engine going, but until you decide what to accomplish, nothing will happen.
Seth Godin
The market and the consumer and idea trump the system.
Seth Godin
Shame must be accepted to be effective.
Seth Godin
We have little choice but to move beyond quality and seek remarkable, connected, and new. Remarkable, as you've already figured out, demands initiative.
Seth Godin
Marketing yourself to a new person often involves being charismatic, clever and quick-but most jobs and most relationships are about being consistent, persistent and brave.
Seth Godin
You dont need to convince everyone. All you need to do is motivate people who choose to follow you.
Seth Godin
Your art is the act of taking personal responsibility, challenging the status quo, and changing people.
Seth Godin
Art changes posture and posture changes innocent bystanders.
Seth Godin
And in a world where we have too many choices and too little time, the obvious thing to do is just ignore stuff. And my parable here is, you're driving down the road and you see a cow, and you keep driving 'cause you've seen cows before. Cows are invisible. Cows are boring. Who's going to stop and pull over and say, oh, look, a cow? Nobody.
