Summary

Are You Ready to Raise a Ruckus?

You're probably good at your job, maybe even great. But secretly, do you yearn to fly higher? To challenge the rules and surprise us with something remarkable? To instigate delight, connection, and real change? To choose better over safer?

Business and cultural visionary Seth Godin has transformed the terrain of marketing and commerce more than once. But many of his readers remain stuck in their own work lives. So what's keeping us back? "The problem isn't a lack of knowledge or skill," he's realized. "The problem is fear." With Leap First, Seth Godin is here to help. This immersive audio program invites us to learn with him personally, unrehearsed and in the moment, as he shines a light for us, not with answers but with questions on the road to:

  • Overcoming our instinctual resistance to risk and change
  • Discovering our creative genius in the face of the empty page or whiteboard
  • Finding the courage to share that work - with vulnerability, generosity, and results

Recorded in an intimate gathering of aspiring entrepreneurs, writers, and leaders, Leap First teaches us 49 essential principles, practices, and life lessons that have helped Seth the most in his own work and life. More than an audiobook or keynote speech, each track here presents a carefully chosen catalyst intended to trigger our own passion and insight with each listening.

"It always feels too soon to leap. But you have to. Because that's the moment between you and remarkable. I hope this helps you return to that edge. And then, to leap."

A potent book very meaningful words. I highly recomend it.Is a kind of a short one but at the same time very practical if you dont have time to invest more in listening.

Read in 2020 still great

I love what Seth says, and would love to ship like he says but it's scarey, like he also says!! the one thing I picked up from reading this a second time is, maybe if you're too scared then ship anonymously

Best Thing I’ve Listened To All Year

Seth is brilliant. But even by his high standards, this is off the charts. Excellent on every aspect. Usual visionary insight and motivational ideas. If you’re struggling to ship what you’re creating, do yourself a favour and listen to this. It’ll shift everything. 💪

Insightful

This is a great lecture that will help you re-align your thoughts. Make you aware of why we seek failure in advance. Understanding why we do this is the first step - to pulling off a spinning-birdie-kick right in the face of Sir.Fear himself.

Short listen reinforcing the best of Set Godin

Where does Leap First rank among all the audiobooks you’ve listened to so far?

It was short and concise, it's a quick listen and if you've read other Seth Godin books you'll appreciate the content, I certainly did. A decent book for its length.

If you’ve listened to books by Seth Godin before, how does this one compare?

I wouldn't consider it a full book but defiantly a good recap of the ideas Seth Godin goes into in his other books.
