More than being the best-selling author of books like Linchpin and Tribes, or the disruptive founder of Squidoo and Yoyodyne, Seth Godin is a teacher of how to live a life beyond the status quo. He once turned down a job offering a billion dollars in equity because he knew it wouldn’t change his life for the better. Seth Godin shares his insights on how to make choices that align with the life you want on this episode of Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu.

Can't believe you got Seth Godin, that in itself deserves applaud. You are hands down becoming one of the best interviewers ever, period. Knowing when to be quiet, and knowing when to prime the pump gets the best out of your guests. You have mastered this. I can listen to the same guest on Lewis Howes, Seth Rogan, Chase Jarvis and I get the most when they are on Impact Theory. I think it's because you are asking and probing what your community wants. What I'm building you have personally had a major impact on. Thank You and Thank You for getting Seth!!

@JohnnyArtPavlou 6 лет назад

TV Smack Talk, Tom totally killed it today with his restraint. I fell in love with him all over again just by watching him listen.

"In a crowded marketplace, fitting in is a failure. In a busy marketplace, not standing out is the same as being invisible." - Seth Godin

@sitathomeprofits 5 лет назад

Yes, Seth talks about becoming a lynchpin and making yourself unique and irreplaceable if you want to survive the wave of the future.

@tjempathictools5215 4 года назад

Teresa Cole , Seth actually goes further than that to say “You” already are unique and would easily stand out in “the marketplace” and that its of value to develop on the many levels that have not been attended to (read developed) that support beyond the lower potential of merely “Fitting in” This whole notion grows from the “lynchpin” idea of learning and growing through knowing what we don’t know........... of ourselves!

@sedalemccall 6 лет назад

"Get hooked on 'this might not work, this might work, we'll find out'" Absolute mindshift. Amazing.

@sitathomeprofits 5 лет назад

That's true SedaleM because it's all testing until something actually works. Many people view the testing process as failure instead of testing a hypothesis. It is a mindset shift to discover that we can test ideas and see if they work and that's okay.

@anon111223 6 лет назад

Seth Godin is one of the most transformative characters in my life. I encountered his work more than 10 years ago, and without his ideas, I would not have been able to build the business I have today. He has greatly influenced me, miles away here in the Philippines. He is a hero. And he is truly making the impact he intends to make. Thanks Seth! And thank you Tom from having him as a guest. Such power in his ideas.

@TomBilyeu 6 лет назад

It has been a full year now that I'm watching Impact theory, so I can say it - Tom, you are the greatest interviewer of our time. You are our Larry King. And in this episode you've been superb, a joy to watch. Seth's ideas and the way he conveys them is nothing short of amazing. This is probably my favorite episode. Thank you for everything you are doing. Because, same as Seth, you ARE making this world a better place.

@lisae9115 5 лет назад

Tom, having Seth is such an incredible accomplishment. Congrats. Seth represents what humanity truly needs to be. He is my "Hero" as he prefers in terms! I listen to him, morning, noon and night. Keep the movement going. !!!

@deepaksoowamber2854 6 лет назад

Seth's interviews are always amazing to listen to. But, Tom I have to applaud your questions and the level of presence you bring to every interview. How much attention you give to every word coming from the person in the other chair, is always something that stands out to me. I loved how to started to go into 'Impact Quote mode' at the end of the interview. Great interview man!

@bee-sully 4 года назад

Can’t tell you how many of your episodes I’ve watched or what order I’m watching them in... so far, this one has been my favorite! Even paused to grab Linchpin from audible and finally listen to seth’s wisdom. You’re doing great work and inspiring my company at every step in mere months. Thank you both.

@ioanascurt1693 6 лет назад

Great interview! I liked the way Seth emphasized the fact that we are living in a period where connections are important, and if you are lucky to meet/find somebody who inspires you, you can achieve great things. A key moment for me was when I found this channel. I am convinced that after a year while I watched the interviews each week, I have a different mindset. I am able and have the courage to do things that before I couldn't do, because I was afraid. But, as Seth said, fear is good to realize what you can do when you actually do. :) Thank you Tom for the interviews and I appreciate all you effort with Impact Theory. You rock!

@sitathomeprofits 5 лет назад

Yes Tina, Tom really does do a great job at the intro and outro of the interviews. I have watched other interviews where the interviewer totally loses control of the interview. Tom does a great job of guiding the interview and making sure that the audience can get some core wisdom that they can apply to their lives and get some positive results.

Damn Tom, one of the best videos you've had on this channel. Congratulations, it seems like it was a little dificult for you and your team to bring Seth to your studio, but if definely worth it. Thank you for doing that, for all of us. I also admire and respect all the time you spend studying the person you're going to interview before the presentation, it is one of the most genuine things that you do on your channel. Lets be legendary my friend. Regards

@zianmistry9314 4 года назад

Tom you are a brilliant interviewer, who truly makes his guest feel valued and appreciated with the spectacular manner in which you introduce them. Moreover, it is not only the brilliant intros that make your podcast stellar in nature but also the manner in which you truly ask insightful and well though out questions that provide great value to the audience. Additionally, as an interviewer you have managed to strike the perfect balance between being present and leading the interview, while also allowing the interviewee to take their time answering the questions posed, a trait that is hard to find in many podcasts and interviews. I truly recommend all viewers to see the manner in which Gary Vaynerchuck interviewed Seth Godin and contrast that with the manner in which Tom conducted his interview as there is a world of the difference with regards to the dynamic shared between the interviewer and interviewee.

@wakeup3581 3 года назад

Five minutes in and I can already tell this is going to be one of my favorites! I don’t even watch TV or use my Hulu account anymore! I literally enjoy my no ad RU-vid educational channels more than any other form of entertainment and it’s really all I wanna do in my free time. In one month I’ve changed my entire life and a lot of it is from the inspiration motivation and change of thought pattern I have gotten from these videos. I wake up early in the morning meditate take a long walk to the gym while listening to educational videos. By 1 o’clock all of my tasks are completed and I have to find more positive things to do so I usually just watch more of your videos. Thank you thank you thank you!!! 🙏🏽

@triciamedora9274 5 лет назад

Amazing!! Empowering brought me to tears. One of the greatest lessons I've learned from Seth Godin is nobody is coming to rescue any of us, we have to rescue ourselves. The only way anyone can rescue themselves is if they truly believe in what they are doing. I do believe in what I am doing. It is not in me to concede regardless of being rejected countless times. I Witness each little successes as it affirms my pursuit. My passion comes from the knowing within me that I am adding to the greater good of the whole. In oneness with each other, not division, is where true success blooms.

@sextoyjenn 4 года назад

Holy wow - it's past 3 a.m., I'm exhausted, and my brand new journal is overflowing with all the aha! moments and inspirational ideas generated in this past hour's worth of interview gold. The only thing I could ask for regarding this video is to have found it sooner! I'm a long-time fan of Seth Godin's work and what he stands for - and I am beyond grateful for all of the knowledge gems packed into just one interview. But I'm most impressed with this interview process itself. As a recovering journalist, I'm intimately aware of how rare it is to have an interviewer as on pointe as Tom Bilyeu is during this video. I lost count of how many times his insightful, deeply researched, heartfelt questions made my inner nerd's heart pitter-patter, each earning Seth's delighted and impressed smile. Well done, sir! GAME-CHANGING hour (plus copious notetaking time) of my life, thank you! Now, sleep! I have 2+ years of your videos and Seth's magic to catch up on! (And resulting action items to get started with!)

@Hellokitty7163 4 года назад

@oatscurry 5 лет назад

These two are peas in a pod. I love this. Seth, Tom, thank you both for agreeing to (and actually) making this happen. "What did that process look like?" Priceless. This is filled with 'obvious' principles articulated in a no-nonsense format. Much appreciated for your sage wisdom and expert communication.

@TheAnand6789 6 лет назад

One of the best interviews that I have watched after David gogins interview

Yes, the interview on David Gogins was amazing. He talked about turning pain into gain and having the mental toughness to get through anything. This interview with Seth is great in that way too.

It has taken me three days to watch this because I didn’t want to miss anything. I’m literally in tears. Seth has changed my perspective on a lot of things. I just want to study him. He’s so much of what I want to see myself evolve to. Though we do not share all of the same experiences, we certainly share the same heart and perhaps the same DNA. Thank you for bringing him to me. You asked all the right questions. Much love. ❤️
