Best ideas of #105 Seth Godin: Failing On Our Way To Mastery | The Knowledge Project with Shane Parrish

Original episode: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-knowledge-project-with-shane-parrish/id990149481?i=1000510303832 The value of having a process making the decision once, understanding the stories others tell themselves saying how dare you to those that shame us. Who is Seth Godin? An entrepreneur marketer with one of the most popular blogs in the world on business marketing, founder of AltMBA. Author of 19 best selling books including Purple Cow, This is Marketing, The practice, covering creative work, marketing more. Founder of Yoyodyne, which was sold for ~$30 million to Yahoo! and became Yahoo's vice president of direct marketing. 1 quote: "Dolly Parton says: Find out who you are and do it on purpose. Seth likes to flip Dolly's phrase upside down, and say do it on purpose and you'll find out who you are." 3 ideas: Idea 1 @ 4mins: Process saves us from the poverty of our intentions.

People eating food we wouldn't eat, participating in activities we wouldn't want a part of. This happens is because everyone tells themselves a different story. They don't believe what we believe. They don't know what we know. They don't want what we want. Realizing the different stories people tell themselves, help you better understand how we can interact with others in the world. Idea 3 @ 1 hour and 10mins: How dare you is not said often enough to people who are seeking to shame us. If you had a boss who woke you up in the middle of the night, scolded you for not working hard enough, criticized all your work and told you you were never going to amount to anything, you would not work for that person for very long.
