Entrepreneurship with Helene & Seth Godin | A Bit of Optimism (Podcast): Episode 6

[@PH1M0]

“Scaling can happen when you are willing to give up ownership and eagerly have people copy what you are doing.” Golden advice right there 👏

[@DrJonTam]

I love how Helene and Seth are so in sync. Even at the beginning she tells him to go first, and he repeats “I go first”, such a wonderful hallmark of communication.

[@rahatshamshieva200]

Happy anniversary to this sweet couple! I wish you another 34 years to go! It's amazing to find out and listen to such sincere, dedicated, caring and passionate people! I loved Helen's quote: " You have to come to Entrepreneurship from the place of generosity" and I'll use it as my logo forever!

Love you simon, we've never met but you're one of the biggest mentors in my life. Your words truly changed my life. Thank you

[@DrJonTam]

I love how you guys differentiate between entrepreneurs, small business owners, freelancers, and corporate leaders

My 9-5err boyfriend this morning: "You're a Gary, a Tom, a Simon. You got this. Pivot." Me: "LET'S GO WATCH SIMON!" Him: "YES! GOOD MORNING!" We both love your content, you help us both in the 9-5 world with a degree and my entrepreneurial journey. Thank you, Simon. Great talk Helene and Seth!

This is what I believe in; If you have an intention to add value, trust the universe and take massive daily action on something you are passionate about, you will be rewarded. This is what pushed me into starting my youtube channel. And even though not many watch me I trust that my efforts will be rewarded one day if I keep pushing forward. 🌟🍀

Simon - the video cuts out early! Listened to the rest on the audio podcast

[@noitpursid6190]

Where?

[@lenapetrova]

I absolutely love these videos and how positive and genuine Simon is. His perspective on many things is so different and I certainly appreciate him sharing it. 💚👏👏

[@cthornton523]

The concept that marriage & entrepreneurship utilizes similar skillsets... NAILED IT. Thank you for this lovely content.

[@racaciaruth4460]

I am so glad Simon that you did NOT use T. M & your inspiring words and spirit of care and influence still ignites and spreads on in humanity now! Congratulations to Mr and Mrs Godin 34 years of such an admirable relationship!! Cheers to your commitment, sacrifice and effort that is required for that flame 🔥 to continue burning! When love is present work is a pleasure anyway. God bless you for making a difference. 🙏 💘

Seth is truly amazing. However, Helene's baked goods are out of this world! As always, a great conversation!

[@shekinah1111]

Helene and Seth are such a cute couple and what a great partnership - they even look alike after 35 years! 😊 Thanks for the great conversation, Simon - look forward to the new episode every Monday AM.

[@truelyfine]

Great discussion. Way too many commercial interruptions. Anecdote at end is clipped.

[@thucuyennt1771]

this podcast is my homework in class. hehe

[@rahatshamshieva200]

I loved that you have used the "fortitude" , Simon! One of my american friends told me that Americans don't really use this word:)

[@mohamedalowaini1007]

Very nice episode. Many thanks.

[@americanbuilttolast]

Nice Work!

[@Foxxxes8855]

I really like and agree on lots of arguments around leadership and the infinite mindset. What I do notice is that Microsoft despite of their mission saying that their in it to let others do more (so no me me me me) you still stick with them branding themselves like that. That's not the case anymore. Microsoft works hard on providing fitting solutions for every layer in society. At least from my perspective. So I get the example, but the credibility deteriorates as some companies, like MS, change.

[@eddygan325]

This is the first time i heard about Seth Godin wife. Wow

Hi, you say that the reason someone jumps from the plane is because they had a parachute, or that because there is a safety net, people try new tricks or stunts, but I believe sometimes the fact that you don´t have a safety net, is the reason why you succeed. Because when you are aware that there is no safety, success becomes the only possibility, and therefore people make it. Why do you think that courage is an external thing?

[@PedroHernandesC]

Hey @Simon, it's cutting at the end!

[@julikayki6655]

Hey! I learn so much from you Simon, and from the guests you bring on. I appreciate it so much how you introduce new people to me that I did not even know yet. I have a question, that is not related to the content of this video, but I would really appreciate the help. How do you get the sound movement of the line behind your picture in the video to move? I'm trying to set up a podcast for an organization that wants to change economic education and economics as a field, it's called Rethinking Economics NL. I would really appreciate the help! Either way, thank you so much for all that you do, you have made me think over the past couple of years and questions things I thought I just 'knew'. Again, I appreciate all that you do. Have yourself a wonderful day.

[@amsaric]

Did this episode get cut off? The ending seems unusually abrupt.

You've already got a small crew, Papa! That's no small feat! Keep on keeping on!

Muhammed Yunus of Grameen bank started a bank for poor people in Bangladesh to provide microloans back in the 80s and after the success of that business model, everybody started to copy that business model. By doing that most people got benefited from that business model.
