Summary

Did you hear last week's Live Inspired Podcast with Seth Godin?

When I asked one of the greatest marketers, thought leaders and influencers of our time how he wants to be remembered he said: "Someone who made a ruckus. To shine a light; do generous, remarkable work; teach people to teach other people; and leave things better than they found them."

Be a ruckus-maker: Do little things consistently well and use your talents in ways that amplify others.

Listen to Seth Godin on Live Inspired Podcast ep. 356.

another today. At an even more personal level, he has profoundly influenced and amplified my

work here at Live Inspired. So how does a person with more than 20 international best-selling

books? A guy with tens of millions of dollars

1:13.2

and savings, a gentleman with universal respect and admiration from his peers, a guy with massive
