From Seth G ..with comments from me...

1. The greatest innovations appear to come from those that are self-reliant. Individuals who go right to the edge and do something worth talking about. Not solo, of course, but as instigators of a team. In two words: don’t settle.

Raul = Change is the only constant, some people asking me why I'm doing many things at the same time...designer, architects, graphics, photography, singing, music composing, painting, designing furniture, writing a novel, and yes, movie script...while at the moment only design/architecture that takes off, the rest just waiting the right timing. Luck = Opportunity + Preparation. I am preparing.

2. The greatest marketers do two things: they treat customers with respect and they measure.

Raul = It is not only being a marketer, hence we are all marketers in some ways...but it is indeed being a good human being is helping you to be become a good marketers, yes there are people doing dirty and get result quickly. No, I am not sprinter, I am a marathoner.Watch out.

3. The greatest salespeople understand that people resist change and that ‘no’ is the single easiest way to do that.

Raul = we can't expect people to change unless it starts from ourselves. And while we try to change ourselves, then we do agree that it's not easy.

4. The greatest bloggers blog for their readers, not for themselves.

Raul = me, not "that" great, maybe because my half intent doing this blogging "also" to remind myself.

5. There really isn’t much a of ‘short run’. It quickly becomes yesterday. The long run, on the other hand, sticks around for quite a while.

Raul = Back to the sprint vs marathon in point no.2

6. The internet doesn’t forget. And sooner or later, the internet finds out.

Raul = which brings you to right question, does internet remember the bad part or the good part? google "raul renanda" now, and finds it by yourself.

7. Everyone is a marketer, even people and organizations that don’t market. They’re just marketers who are doing it poorly.

Raul = Practice makes perfect. Doing it 'poorly' still better than not doing it at all, make mistake now! and learn from it, quickly, and doing it again..

8. Amazing organizations and people receive rewards that more than make up for the effort required to be that good.

Raul = just focus on beat your self. we are racing with ourselves. then the reward will come.

9. There is no number 9.

Raul = but it's written anyway. Not all that we read is necessary, to read.

10. Mass taste is rarely good taste.

Raul = don't tell me this. I KNOW IT.that's why you better to hire me, NOW. ;-)
