Creative work doesn't come with a guarantee. But there is a pattern to who succeeds and who doesn't. And engaging in the consistent practice of its pursuit is the best way forward. Based on the breakthrough Akimbo workshop pioneered by legendary author Seth Godin, The Practice will help you get unstuck and find the courage to make and share creative work. Godin insists that writer's block is a myth, that consistency is far more important than authenticity, and that experiencing the imposter syndrome is a sign that you're a well-adjusted human.

Essentialism is more than a time-management strategy or a productivity technique. It is a systematic discipline for discerning what is absolutely essential, then eliminating everything that is not, so we can make the highest possible contribution toward the things that really matter.

Now, for the first time, Seth Godin offers the core of his marketing wisdom in one compact, accessible, and timeless package. This Is Marketing shows you how to do work you're proud of, whether you're a tech start-up founder, a small-business owner, or part of a large corporation. Great marketers don't use consumers to solve their company's problem; they use marketing to solve other people's problems. Their tactics rely on empathy, connection, and emotional labor instead of attention-stealing ads. When done right, marketing seeks to make change in the world.

One of his best books
Reviewed: 2019-02-14
This was one of his best books. He tied together a lot of strategic and tactical advice and covered enough ground that it will take a few reads to properly digest and implement his ideas. I was slightly sad when the book ended. It's been a while since I've had that feeling at the end of a business book (which I read mostly). Buy it and you won't be disappointed.

Big companies spend a fortune marketing their wares and services. Can yours? Invariably people ask advertising veteran and CBC Radio host Terry O'Reilly one question more than any other: How does a little business compete with the big guys? After decades at the helm of an award-winning advertising production company, and over a decade exploring the art and science of marketing for CBC Radio, O'Reilly delivers all the answers they - and anyone with something to sell - ever wanted to know.

Reviewed: 2018-03-12
I listen to Terry’s podcast, Under the Influence, and this book was like a season on steroids. Amazing consolidation of his marketing wisdom. I normally listen to books at 1.25x or 1.5x speed, but this book I needed to put on 1x so I could soak it all in. Now I’m going to buy the hard copy so I can highlight, bookmark, and write in the margins. A timeless classic.
