Curiosity may have killed the cat, but it also creates millionaires
I’d like to take credit for finding the video below, but I can’t. I was reading Michael Werner’s article entitled The Riskiest Thing That You Can Ever Do Is Play-It-Safe and he had a link to this video of Seth Godin, the marketing guru.
If you have never heard of Seth, then it will be worth your time to visit his blog. He is unique and his views will change and/or challenge everything you thought that you knew about the world of marketing (it doesn’t matter if you have a product, a service or a blog – most of his knowledge will apply).
After you appetite has been whetted, I encourage you to visit your local bookstore or your online source and buy some of his books. I have read several of them and plan on doing reviews about them at a later date. They are great, by the way.
The point is – Seth will make you think! Which leads to questions. Which leads to ideas. Which leads to….a greater awareness of your role in everything.
Watch the video.

Good stuff Chris! Seth is probably the most influential marketing guy out there, and I’ve certainly learnt heaps from him!

Hello Chris:
Thanks for an interesting clip. I think blogging can foster curiousity. A blogger can research new topics and learn from feedack and new ideas from readers.

Thanks for stopping by to have a look, guys. Seth is a visionary of commonsense.
What a powerful video! I’ve never heard of Seth before, but I’ll have to check out his blog. It’s funny because in the past few months, I’ve been feeling like he stated in the video - like it’s more risky not to be curious and take a chance. Even though I kind of wish I didn’t feel like this, I’m finding it hard not to go with this feeling and have been embracing it. I guess I’ll see where it leads me.
And good luck with the new baby! ; )

Hi Anali,
If you have never read any of Seth’s work, then you are in for a treat. He is a master of revealing in simple ways, the things that should be obvious to us (bloggers are marketeers) and how to use them to increase brand awareness.
Wow, great video! Thanks for sharing the great video. I am also a big fan of Seth Godin and think he is one of the most brilliant minds of modern marketing out there. He is almost the only one. His books are fantastic. Keep feeding us the great articles!
