The Knot

About this book

"This book will give you language for something you felt your whole life but couldn't quite articulate." --From the foreword by Mel Robbins, author of The Let Them Theory You're not stuck because the problem is too hard. You're stuck because you want two things that can't both be true. Every persistent problem -- in your career, your organization, or your life -- is held in place by something hidden: a system that rewards the status quo, a false constraint everyone has accepted, or an entanglement you haven't named. But problems can be solved when you know where to look. In The Knot, Seth Godin helps you: Distinguish between problems you can solve and situations you need to accept. Look for the "but" that reveals entanglements keeping you stuck. See the systems at work, question false constraints, and focus on what actually matters. Create the conditions for change instead of simply hoping for it. This book leaves readers with a simple mantra for meaningful work: Name the baggage. Drop the baggage. Ship the work. Problems can be solved. The Knot shows you how.
