Nick directed me to this video of Seth Godin explaining a little more about his book Tribes. He recently gave the ebook away on his website. You can also find the audiobook here, for free. If you don’t know Seth, you should. I read his blog every day, and generally find some nugget of truth/inspiration for my day.
I don’t know how to get the embed code to work in this wordpress theme, but I promise that it’s worth your time to click through.
Near the end Seth starts talking about why he doesn’t use Twitter or Facebook. He doesn’t want to spread himself too thin, and he knows that by limiting the things he does, he maximizes his impact and influence. He states “Don’t be a wandering generality, be a meaningful specific.”
Nick noted that he liked that thought. It hits particularly close to home with me, too.
What do you think? Do you find yourself feeling like a little pat of butter spread across too much bread?
