More quotes by Seth
Rather than simply interrupting a television show with a commercial or barging into the consumer’s life with an unannounced phone call or letter, tomorrow’s marketer will first try to gain the consumer’s consent to participate in the selling process.
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
A generation that hates war will not bring peace. A generation that loves peace will bring peace.
Seth
As an organization grows and succeeds, it sows the seeds of its own demise by getting boring.
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
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
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 present is the point of 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
Anyone who takes responsibility for getting something done is welcome to ask for the authority to do it.
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 Internet is going to change marketing before it changes almost anything else, and old marketing will die in its path.
Seth
Ordinary thinking and ordinary effort are almost never enough to generate leadership.
Seth
There's a huge difference between the shallow pleasure of instant applause and the long-lasting impact of true connection.
Seth
The easiest thing is to react. The second easiest thing is to respond. But the hardest thing is to initiate. – When people ask you to tell them what to do, resist.
Seth
You create your reality. You will find this freedom by learning to look inward, and by realizing that you create the reality that you know. There are no exceptions to this rule. Your successes and your failures alike, you have yourselves created. If you would but understand, this is the truth that would make you free.
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
We see what we believe, not the other way around.
Seth
For at no time are any events predestined. There should be no such word in your vocabulary, for with every moment you change, and every heartbeat is an action, and every action changes every other action.
Seth
The magical approach is indeed the natural approach to life's experience. It is the adult version of childhood knowledge, the human version of the animals' knowledge, the conscious version of 'unconscious' comprehension.
