Insulate yourself… by Seth Godin
- Insulate yourself from anonymous angry people
- Expose yourself to art you don’t yet understand
- Precisely measure the results that are important to you
- Stay blind to the metrics that don’t matter
- Fail often
- Ship
- Lead, don’t manage so much
- Seek out uncomfortable situations
- Make an impact on the people who matter to you
- Be better at your baseline skills than anyone else
- Copyedit less, invent more
- Give more speeches
- Ignore unsolicited advice

Love them all…particularly the last. I try very hard to listen to my own inner voice. Sometimes ignoring the clamor without…is a challenge which takes me weeks and weeks to overcome. But I keep trying. It’s my life after all.
heartfelt hugs…hugmamma.
Indeed it is YOUR life, dear M. *hugs*
Follow your intuition, that’s the best advice I can give you… but perhaps that’s unsolicited
Thank you Marion – great reminder!
Sometimes we have to read it out loud
“you can’t step into the same river twice” – isn’t it kind of sad….
No, sweetheart, it’s not sad: it’s good: there’s always something new to discover. We just have to learn to make the most of each moment, to live in the now.
