More quotes by Seth Godin
Please stop waiting for a map. We reward those who draw maps, not those who follow them.
Seth Godin
It's entirely possible that there won't be a standing ovation at the end of your journey. That's okay. At least you lived.
Seth Godin
Yes, I think it's okay to abandon the big, established, stuck tribe. It's okay to say to them, You're not going where I need to go, and there's no way I'm going to persuade all of you to follow me. So rather than standing here watching the opportunities fade away, I'm heading off. I'm betting some of you, the best of you, will follow me.
Seth Godin
If you can't make money from attention, you should do something else for a living.
Seth Godin
The person who fails the most wins.
Seth Godin
In our desire to please everyone, it's very easy to end up being invisible or mediocre.
Seth Godin
Be personal. Be relevant. Be specific.
Seth Godin
Go ahead, do something impossible.
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
No one is as smart as all of us.
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
Think big. Start small.
Seth Godin
If you want customers to hear about you, make something worth talking about.
Seth Godin
Playing safe is very risky.
Seth Godin
If you're in the idea business, it doesn't matter where you're from. It matters if we care about the change you're making.
Seth Godin
People are not afraid of failure, they're afraid of blame.
Seth Godin
The question isn’t whether or not you should wait to be picked, the question is whether you care enough to pick yourself.
Seth Godin
Just saying yes because you can't bear the short-term pain of saying no is not going to help you do the work.
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
It's almost impossible to have fun playing ping pong with someone who doesn't care, won't try or isn't any good.
