Video Review of Linchpin by Seth Godin
Cover of Linchpin: Are You Indispensable?
I did it! I finished Seth Godin’s book, Linchpin: Are You Indispensable? (affiliate link) I’d heard about it through a number of podcast interviews and at a local book discussion group, and I really had this one down to read this year.
This book scared me. I started reading it and put it down for awhile. Then I got a notice from the library that someone else had reserved it, so I needed to either finish it or turn it in. The thing that really struck me about this book is what Seth calls “shipping”: getting work done and out the door. I knew this and couldn’t just return it, so I spent a few hours earlier this week and finished it.
One thing Seth mentioned in the book is “The Cult of Done Manifesto,” which can be found on Bre Pettis’s blog. This is something that resonated so strongly with me that I found a color copy that Martha Hardy made, printed it into a poster, and put it up on the wall in my home where I can see it.
I mention all of this in this short video book review. Click here to see the embedded video.
