Linchpin is actually really good though.


I agree. I've read most of his books but Linchpin has depth to it that the others don't. I've heard people remark they were "confused" with the message and had to re-read the book to digest it. It's just pure unadulterated Seth Godin, that's all.


I thought the post was promoting the "Pick Four" book?


Crap. I should re-read the post again :P


One more thing. Change the name. Change it to: "WhenYouAreGreat.com"

Trust me on this one. Then resubmit to HN. There is massive potential here.


Ha, any particular reason for the name change?

Thanks for the feedback though, look forward to hearing your thoughts/questions


I think this tagline will explain it:

Manifestos of Future Leaders - Like You

Again, lots of potential here if you play your cards right.


Interesting, I like the tagline quite a bit. Fits with the concept quite well: Make sure you stay true to what you set out to do even after you've made it.


This is pretty cool! Looks good on mobile too.

I'll write mine up in the next day or so. I may send you an email then with some user questions.


To the author of the post: I really respect how you are addressing a specific threat to nature (balloon releases) and taking action in a polite and positive manner.

I'm going to forward this to my daughter) who is very ecologically conscious but overwhelmed at the immensity of the issue) as an excellent example of how they can make a positive change.

Thanks again.


As an adjunct to this article, I should mention an experimental project I launched just yesterday called VOW of NOW. It's a 30 day program that tries to instill meditation as a daily habit by leveraging powerful incentives: http://vowofnow.com

A bunch of people are taking the vow already, and I'm excited and hoping it works for them and is the beginning of a more zen life. We'll see. I welcome everyone to try.


Thank you. Lets do it. I'll zip you an email now.


Thanks guys!


Yeah, I agree. Things don't even get interesting for me until 30 minutes in.

I wanted it to be attainable for everyone though, even novices with "monkey mind".


LMAO! :)
