"Tribes" by Seth Godin

Newest reading material. Don't read? No problem. Here's the audio book FOR FREE courtesy of my boy Melfi

Hate books? This quotes for you courtesy of my mans and em DMX:

Tommy 'Buns' Bundy: Come on with the bullshit, man. You think another motherfucker know what you need to do? Ain't no purpose, dawg. It's money. We born to fucking die, man. In the meantime, get money. Fuck a book, man.

Sincere: Yo, when's the last time you read anything, man?
Tommy 'Buns' Bundy: Never, motherfucker.


My homie Tenielle from Boys & Clothes sent some notes on it, just to make this whole process easy for you:

It was good. Better on audiobook. Here's some of my spoilers.

Belief is a brilliant strategy.

Its Good To Be King - Marketing

Stability is an illusion.

Making A Ruckus - Change

Great leaders empower movements by inspiring the tribe to communicate.

Tribes aren't about "stuff" they're about connection.

Wikipedia

Leading From The Bottom

Good enough isn't good enough, try being great.
The difference between average and mediocre.

Standard=mediocre.

Defending mediocrity is exhausting.

An individual artist needs only 1000 true fans in their tribe.

What they demand is generosity and bravery.

Twitter

Everyday it becomes simpler to choose to tighten the relationships with
the people who choose to follow you.

Initiative = Happiness

You have everything you need to build something far bigger than
yourself. The people around you notice this and they're ready to follow
if you're ready to lead.

The F-Word

The Peter Principle

Fear of failure is overrated.

The Cult of The Heretics

Great leaders focus on the tribe and only the tribe.

Great leaders don't want the attention, they use it. They use it to
unite the tribe and reinforce its sense of purpose.

Its uncomfortable to resist the urge to settle.

Leadership is a choice. Its the choice to not do nothing.

Leaning in or backing off but not doing nothing.

Curiosity

Great leaders don't try to please everyone. Great leaders don't water
down their message to make their tribe bigger.

Who Settles

Faith

Without faith its suicidal to be a leader.

Leadership requires always acting like the underdog.

Leaders cause the events that others have to react to.

The Difference Between Things That Happen To You And Things You Do

    Downloaded it, listened to it in 2 days going to and from work...loved it. I like the "challenge the status quo" ideas and a leader leads from behind so he can see his people prosper first.
