More quotes by 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
Extraordinary benefits accrue to the tiny minority of people who are able to push just a tiny bit longer than most.
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 your ideas about yourself change, so does your experience.
Seth
As an organization grows and succeeds, it sows the seeds of its own demise by getting boring.
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
The most I can do is to acquaint you with the authority of your own psyche - to give you a trust in the nature of your being. For, if you trust what you are, you can never go wrong in whatever terms you use. You can fly through belief systems as a butterfly flies through back yards.
Seth
Advertising is just a symptom, a tactic. Marketing is about far more than that.
Seth
Marketing that works is marketing that people choose to notice.
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
Now: For those of you who are lazy I can offer no hope: death will not bring you an eternal resting place. You may rest, if this is your wish, for a while. Not only must you use your abilities after death, however, but you must face up to yourself for those that you did not use during your previous existence.
Seth
You must realize that what you are cannot be seen in a mirror. What you see in a mirror is but a dim reflection of your true reality.
Seth
The best experiences and the biggest ideas don't fit into a category. They change it. They don't get filed away, they transform us.
Seth
We see what we believe, not the other way around.
Seth
It is very important that you express your idealism actively, to what ever extent you can, for this increases your sense of worth and power.
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
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 only thing that makes people and organizations great is their willingness to be not great along the way. The desire to fail along the way to reaching a bigger goal is the untold secret of success.
Seth
Courage is the willingness to speak the truth about what you see and to own what you say.
Seth
As I have told you before, in a manner of speaking you are given the gifts of gods. Your beliefs become reality. What you believe is, and becomes real in your experience. There is no area in your life to which this does not apply.
Seth
