Boomer Author Seth Godin Every Day Is A New Chance To Choose
My loyal readers know that I am a big fan of Seth Godin and his blog (find it by typing “seth” into Google or just click on the link), (Note: it is the most popular marketing blog in the world). He not only imparts marketing wisdom but shares with us (he calls it rifts) in such a manner, that it inspires us to think about life and re-think a lot of what we take as the truth in our system.
His latest New York Times Best Selling Book Linchpin: Are You Indispensable?
Linchpin challenges you to stand up, do work that matters and race to the top instead of the bottom. More than that, though, the book outlines a massive change in our economy, a fundamental shift in what it means to have a job.
Godin writes: “Every day I meet who have so much to give but have been bullied enough or frightened enough to hold it back. It’s time to stop complying with the system and draw your own map. You have the brilliance in you, your contribution is essential, and the art you create is precious. Only you can do it, and you must.”
Below is Seth Godin quoting Ishita Gupta from his book “Linchpin: Are You Indispensable?”.
“Choose to change your perspective.
Choose to flip the switch in your mind. Turn on the light and stop fretting about with insecurity and doubt.
Choose to do your work and be free of distraction.
Choose to see the best in someone, or choose to bring out the worst in them.
Choose to be a laser beam, with focused intention, or a scattered ray of light that doesn’t do any good.”
The power of choice is just that. Power. the only thing we have to do is remember that we control the harnessing of that power. We choose.
Don’t let your circumstances or habits rule your choices today. Become a master of yourself and use your willpower to choose.
~Seth Godin
