More quotes by Seth
It's never too late to redefine self-control, to change long-ingrained habits, and to do the work you're capable of.
Seth
Don’t try to please everyone. There are countless people who don’t want one, haven’t heard of one or actively hate it. So what?
Seth
It is not virtuous in any way to put yourself down, or to punish yourself, because you do not feel you have lived up to your best behavior at any given time.
Seth
And yet the real success goes to those who obsess. The focus that leads you through the Dip to the other side is rewarded by a marketplace in search of the best in the world. A woodpecker can tap twenty times on a thousand trees and get nowhere, but stay busy. Or he can tap twenty-thousand times on one tree and get dinner.
Seth
What could you measure? What would that cost? How fast could you get the results? If you can afford it, try it. If you measure it, it will improve.
Seth
There's a huge difference between the shallow pleasure of instant applause and the long-lasting impact of true connection.
Seth
It's not enough to be aware of the domain you're working in, you need to understand it. Noticing things and being curious about how they work is the single most common trait I see in creative people. Once you can break the components down, you can put them back together into something brand new.
Seth
Advertising is just a symptom, a tactic. Marketing is about far more than that.
Seth
You can spend your time on stage pleasing the heckler in the back, or you can devote it to the audience that came to hear you perform.
Seth
If there was ever a moment to follow your passion and do work that matters, this is it.
Seth
Stop advertising and start innovating.
Seth
As far as you are concerned the present is your point of action, focus and power, and from that point of volition you form both your future and past. Realizing this, you will understand that you are not at the mercy of a past over which you have no control.
Seth
An artists is someone who does something for the first time, something human, something that touches another.
Seth
We must be talented, powerful and resilient creatures indeed given how much we manage to produce despite the constant undercutting, ridicule and needless censorship we aim at ourselves.
Seth
Hatred of war will not bring peace. Only love of peace will bring about those conditions.
Seth
When you focus on delighting an audience you care about, you strip the masses of their power.
Seth
You do not hate anyone you are not capable of loving. Remember that.
Seth
When you see the world as it is, but insist on making it more like it could be, you matter.
Seth
People do not buy goods and services. They buy relations, stories and magic.
Seth
The linchpin is an individual who can walk into chaos and create order, someone who can invent, connect, create, and make things happen. Every worthwhile institution has indispensable people who make differences like these.
