Some of my favorite quotes from Poke the Box by Seth Godin:
"As organizations have begun to coalesce around projects, they’ve made a startling discovery: the starting part is harder than it looks."
"They don’t understand that Excellence isn’t about working extra hard to do what you’re told. It’s about taking the initiative to do work you decide is worth doing."
"The greatest challenge any successful organization faces is finding the guts to risk that success in order to accomplish something great. And risking that success ultimately becomes the only way to accomplish something great."
"Joy comes from surprise and connection and humanity and transparency and new. These are alien concepts in many places. McDonald’s, Hertz, Dell, and others crank it out. They show up. They lower costs. They use a stopwatch to measure output."
