We've been trained to prefer being right to learning something, to prefer passing the test to making a difference, and most of all to prefer fitting in with the right people

More quotes by Seth
An artists is someone who does something for the first time, something human, something that touches another.
Seth
The basic idea of karma is not punishment. Karma presents the opportunity for development to make use of opportunities that were not taken advantage of, to fill in gaps of ignorance, to enlarge understanding through experience, to do what should be done.
Seth
You do not hate anyone you are not capable of loving. Remember that.
Seth
More time on the problem isn't the way. More guts is. When you expose yourself to the opportunities that scare you, you create something scarce, something others won't do.
Seth
It takes a lot of guts to stop measuring things that are measurable, and even more guts to create things that don't measure well by conventional means.
Seth
Your art is what you do when no one can tell you exactly how to do it. Your art is the act of taking personal responsibility, challenging the status quo, and changing people.
Seth
You know something is important when you're willing to let someone else take the credit if that's what it takes to get it done.
Seth
The people who successfully start independent businesses (franchises, I think are a different thing) do it because we have no real choice in the matter. The voice in our heads won't shut up until we discover if we're right, if we can do it, if we can make something happen. This is an art, our art, and to leave it bottled up is a crime.
Seth
People claim that love is the deepest feeling, but don't you believe it. Loneliness is the most affecting of human emotions. Nothing makes life more vivid. If you wish to live in the moment, I recommend intense loneliness.
Seth
As an organization grows and succeeds, it sows the seeds of its own demise by getting boring.
Seth
Consciousness is, among other things, a spontaneous exercise in creativity.
Seth
If you make a difference, people will gravitate to you. They want to engage, to interact and to get you more involved.
Seth
When you see the world as it is, but insist on making it more like it could be, you matter.
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
On the other hand technology brings within your reach the great therapy of music this activates the inner living cells of your body, stimulates the energy of the inner self and helps to unite the conscious mind with the other portions of your being.
Seth
Sometimes we spend more time than we should defending the old thing, instead of working to take advantage of the new thing.
Seth
The best time to do great customer service is when a customer is upset.
Seth
You get what you concentrate upon. There is no other main rule.
Seth
If you're considering word of mouth, stability and lifetime value, it's almost always true that the easier it is to get someone's attention, the less it's worth.
Seth
We've discovered that the earth isn't flat that we won't fall off its edges, and our experience as a species has changed as a result. Maybe we'll soon find out that the self isn't flat either, and that death is as real and yet as deceptive as the horizon that we don't fall out of life either.
