Stop Trying to Be Perfect and Start Being Remarkable

I stole the title for this post from Seth Godin’s book “The Big Moo” which was a follow up to his previous title, “Purple Cow.” I just looked at some reviews for this book on amazon.com; here is some of what Publisher’s Weekly had to say,

“This means you have to toss out everything you know and do something “remarkable” (the way a purple cow in a field of Guernseys would be remarkable)…his wide-ranging advice-be outrageous, tell the truth, test the limits and never settle for just “very good”-is solid and timely.

Hmmm… being remarkable, doesn’t that sound like fun?

Telling the truth, is that the norm in business today? Doesn’t everyone just assume they are being lied too?

Well I am not that cynical yet and I hope I never will be. My thinking is that if you are going to work at a job or run a business or what ever you are doing with your life, you might as well shoot for remarkable and honest. Heck, just being honest is remarkable these days!
