1 小时 7 分钟So I was thinking about all the different ways that I could potentially introduce my guest today.
Seth Godin.
And Seth and I have known each other for a solid chunk of years now.
I could tell you about how he's this brilliant thinker, a marketer, an entrepreneur, a founder, an educator.
I could tell you all the accomplishments that he has out in the world.
I could tell you what he's built.
I could tell you about the gazillion New York Times bestselling books that he has on the market.
And in fact, he does have a really fascinating new book out called this is marketing.
I could tell you about how he helped sort of create an industry of books as idea viruses.
But when I really think about Seth, the thing I have come to know about him and admire him more than anything else is he's what my great grandmother would have called.
He is just a kind, genuine, thoughtful human being who wants to see others experience their lives better.
So when I have an opportunity to sit down and have a conversation with Seth, it's pretty much always a yes.
Now, the last time he and I actually captured one of these conversations on a microphone was actually in something much bigger than a microphone is very early days of good life project when we were filming, and that was about six years ago as I sit here and record this.
And we sat down today for a really powerful and very wide ranging and, I think, important conversation that touched on ideas of the day, reflected on some places that we've come from.
And also at the end, I think he poses a really important question for all of us to consider as we look at how we want to live our lives on a day to day basis, how we want to contribute to the world and what we would love that world to look like.
Really happy to share this conversation with my friend, Seth Godin.
I'm Jonathan Fields, and this is good life project.
It's really good to be hanging out with you again.
We don't do it often enough.
I know, I know.
