... Your end user might be more worried about if they are going to make payroll next week, or how they are going to pay their rent. Make your value added proposition short, clear, and jump out at them. And if all else fails remember these wise words from Troiano: “Startups fail because the dog won’t eat the dog food”. 2. Hiring the best technical fit Seth Godin makes a really interesting point in his new book “LinchPin”, that I think really helps drive this idea home “In a factory, doing a job that’s not yours is dangerous. Now, if you’re a linchpin, doing a job that’s not getting done is essential”. A linchpin is a single person or thing that is critical to the whole; a central source of stability and security. ...

... Not everybody is going to be able to play a bass guitar like Geddy Lee, but let's agree that creativity can happen in the legal profession and in the medical world as much as it can in the arts. You can make a difference. Get creative. Accept that you are an artist (in whatever it is that you're doing). If you're grappling with what that means, read Seth Godin's latest best-selling business book, Linchpin. But before you do anything else, please watch this TED Talk from Sir Ken Robinson on creativity, innovation and education: Start thinking about your own talent and creativity today (right now). Nurture it and push those you are connected to do the same. ... - Brand Autopsy 08 Jul 10:
... Seth Godin writes a lot about Resistance in LINCHPIN, but he refers to it as one’s “lizard brain” creating fear which prevents us from actualizing our aspirations. Steven Pressfield first defined/articulated what Resistance is and how it acts as a self-sabotaging power in THE WAR OF ART. (We’ve talked a lot about this must-read book before on the Brand Autopsy blog in 2005 and 2008. ) This past Sunday at Gateway Church, Ted Beasley gave Pressfield’s concept of Resistance new light. In the WAR OF ART, Pressfield writes. “Most of us live two lives. The life we live, and the unlived life within us. ...

... Advanced CSS by Joseph Lewis It’s tough to find a good coding book if you already have a lot of experience in the development world, but Advanced CSS contained a lot of great information on microformats, mobile development, CSS3 and more. A bit dry in some parts, but a recommended read nonetheless.

Linchpin explains the importance of sticking out and being indispensable in today’s tough market.

... Seth Godin’s Linchpin is one of the two books I recommend most often to clients in search of career advice (the other one is Ignore Everybody by Hugh MacLeod). So I thought it was a great idea when fellow creative coach Cynthia Morris suggested we do a free podcast about Linchpin and its implications for people pursuing a creative career. Next week Cynthia and I are going to record the call, probably about 45 minutes long, and make it available for free download here and over at Cynthia’s Original Impulse blog. We’re also preparing a worksheet full of coaching questions to help you take action on the challenges Seth describes in the book – again, this will be a free download. ... - the brip brap blog 08 Jul 10:
... So I joined the lower level of the median salaries and might have been happier – and done better over the course of my first 10-15 years of working – had I done a job search and chosen a different career path, with a narrower bank of average career salaries. Note: I haven’t read Seth Godin’s Linchpin: Are You Indispensable? yet, but I gather that’s what that book is all about – the idea of making yourself into an “artist, ” which Godin believes makes you deeply committed to becoming indispensible to your organization. Maybe I should read it… Follow me on Twitter!average career salaries is an original article from the website brip blap. ...
