I highly recommend reading or hearing this book

The flow of ideas is very smooth and language is simple

Another nice piece from Seth Godin. Last week I heard this book at once during my flight to Oman. The book is really very interesting, inspiring and the same time very realistic.
I really like the part where Seth Godin differentiates between the “Factory” and the “Tribe” mentality. But what I really liked most is how he portrayed our resistance to lead: We don’t fear failure but criticism! which is strikingly true.
I highly recommend this book. It is really amazing.
