Seth Godin (not to be confused with Seth Rogen!) is an author and business/ marketing expert. His blog (sethgodin.typepad.com) is one I read daily. It is always interesting and usually thought provoking. Godin typically does not give me “answers” but will plant a seed that will make me contemplate my status quo.
It is motivational, but not in a rah, rah way. He writes in a manner that makes me believe that it is OK to try new things and expand my comfort zone… and that he will be on my side when I do.
I have read (and recommend) all of his books, from Purple Cow, to his most recent, The Icarus Deception. They are all good – The Icarus Deception is REALLY good- I highly recommend it.
His posts all have a business/ marketing slant, but the concepts are equally applicable to athletics … and life in general. I like to say that Godin is a coach but just doesn’t know it. But, without a doubt, Godin Knows Sports!
