The Icarus Deception

Author Seth Godin asks: What are you afraid of?

The old rules: Play it safe. Stay in your comfort zone. Find an institution, a job, a set of rules to stick to. Keep your head down. Don’t fly too close to the sun. The new truth: It’s better to be sorry than safe. You need to fly higher than ever. In his bravest and most challenging book yet, Seth Godin shows how we can thrive in an economy that rewards art, not compliance. He explains why true innovators focus on trust, remarkability, leadership, and stories that spread. And he makes a passionate argument for why you should be treating your work as art. “Art isn’t only a painting. Art is anything that’s creative, passionate, and personal. And great art resonates with the viewer, not only with the creator.”

In this webinar interview, Seth Godin explains:

• How to know if you are an artist
• Why it’s important to connect people
• Why making art for the sake of making is not the way to go
• When the price of getting it wrong is too high a price to pay
• What to do when your ‘art’ fails
• Why vulnerability works even when it hurts
• When to ask: Who will your customers be after they interact with you?
• The daily habits of successful artists
