So searching, searching the web, I chance upon Seth Godin's name. Somehow it had escaped -- rather than penetrated -- my consciousness why many consider him a guru. I just didn't know why supporters felt this way. Then one day I really see his name on several other established websites and decide to experience Seth's work myself. I subscribe to his feed.
After a couple of weeks of receiving his daily email blast, I notice that his comments are often pithy little stingers that stay with me for much of the day. They actually resonate with me. I mean, one does not have to write a treatise to be meaningful, I conclude. I'd been struggling to figure out how not to talk into my navel, how to talk about the things that are of interest to me, how to find the people who shared some aspects of my interests and consciousness. Quite simply, how to be authentic online.
Then I learn the Good Ideas Salon is hosting an event where Seth Godin will speak on Feb. 4th from 8:30am - 11:30am that costs $200. Now I love the name the " Good Ideas Salon." Its site states "Good Ideas Salons are designed to bring likeminds together to share ideas and positivity around certain subjects. For this intimate event, Seth will present his latest book Linchpin and will openly discuss with the audience their experiences as linchpins at work." What will my takeaway be. It's got to be more than a good feeling. Right.
I decide to pay the $200 to attend this seminar. I will share in a later post what transpires from the standpoint of a Mini-Mogulista who wishes to grow her business. Right now I have got to get my hands on his book and read it before February 4th. You will be hearing more. I feel a change coming on. Go directly to playing your hand.
What is your knowledge and or experience of Seth Godin?
Greetings Ms. Mogulista,
ReplyDeleteI also will be attending PSFK's Good Ideas Salon with Seth Godin and am just as excited as soon. I wanted to give you the heads up that as participants we will get a copy of Linchpin, should you not get a chance to pick it up beforehand know that you'll have a copy waiting for you there.
I look forward to meeting you!
See you next week,
Ngozi
