The paradox is that by the time you get to be senior, the decisions that matter the most are the ones that would be best made made by people who are junior.

More quotes by Seth
You do not hate anyone you are not capable of loving. Remember that.
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
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
Your intent to find a mate sends out 'strands of consciousness' however, composed of desire and intent. Like detectives, these search the world, looking in a completely different way than a physical sleuth. The world is probed with your characteristics in mind, seeking for someone else with characteristics that will best suit your own.
Seth
A generation that hates war will not bring peace. A generation that loves peace will bring peace.
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 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
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
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
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.
Seth
If there was ever a moment to follow your passion and do work that matters, this is it.
Seth
The present is the point of power.
Seth
Either you’re going to tell stories that spread, or you will become irrelevant.
Seth
The best time to do great customer service is when a customer is upset.
Seth
Leaps look good in the movies, but in fact, success is mostly about finding a path and walking it one step at a time.
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.
Seth
Courage is the willingness to speak the truth about what you see and to own what you say.
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
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
It's sad and upsetting when you see somebody crying hysterically, but at the same time it's real funny.
Seth
