More quotes by Seth
Take a chance on your own abilities clearly, neither exaggerating them nor under-assessing them.
Seth
It's sad and upsetting when you see somebody crying hysterically, but at the same time it's real funny.
Seth
We see what we believe, not the other way around.
Seth
The Internet is going to change marketing before it changes almost anything else, and old marketing will die in its path.
Seth
Ideas that spread win. Ideas don't have to be selfish to win, in fact, it turns out that the more generous the interactions an idea produces, the more likely it is to spread.
Seth
In basic terms, civilization is dependent upon the spontaneity and fulfillment of the individual. Your civilization is in sad straits. Not because you are allowed spontaneity or fulfillment to individuals, but because you are denied it, and because your institutions are based upon that premise.
Seth
There is no other way to change your physical reality but by changing your thoughts.
Seth
You will not understand your part within the framework of nature until you actually see yourselves in danger of tearing it apart.
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
When your ideas about yourself change, so does your experience.
Seth
Hatred of war will not bring peace. Only love of peace will bring about those conditions.
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
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
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
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
If you want to know what you think of yourself, then ask yourself what you think of others and you will find the answer.
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
It's never too late to redefine self-control, to change long-ingrained habits, and to do the work you're capable of.
Seth
Freedom isn't the ability to do whatever you want. It's the willingness to do whatever you want.
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
