Who's Your Seth Godin?

Thank you for sharing this interesting story with us.

I just saw Seth's post at your blog, it's really exclusive just for you, that was nice :) (I have read most of his books and writings)

I would think that both of you are great writers, each of his own style.

This is what I like about what he wrote on your blog:

"Start a business. A tiny one.

Train people in social media. Run an eBay selling business. Sell coffee from a truck every morning at the train station. Run spring break tours by bus for other college students. Start a newsstand on campus. Run a birthday cake delivery service. Train executives in public speaking. Start a dog poop shoveling business.

Start something. Run it. Be responsible."

That's a first I heard from anyone :) and it speak volumes. I imagine that starting a business is ultimately about being willing to take responsibility for our own success or failure.

You have one line that stuck with me :

"The point I want to make today is that many of you are worrying needlessly"

The best I have heard for today. Kudos to you *Smiles*

Great post!
