We all spend so much of our time wanting all of these wonderful things in our lives, yet on the inside we know that you can't get something for nothing. When people start making a conscious effort to create value in every area of their lives, they will start to realize their own value in the process, which, of course, is extraordinary. As opposed to remarkable... :) Great stuff! - Aaron Steve,

This is a GREAT post! We all spend so much of our time wanting all of these wonderful things in our lives, yet on the inside we know that you can’t get something for nothing.

When people start making a conscious effort to create value in every area of their lives, they will start to realize their own value in the process, which, of course, is extraordinary.

As opposed to remarkable… :)

Great stuff!

over all how i feel about your post is iffy! we all contribute something at some point! but it’s not allways about contribute I would prefer to have someone passionantily contribute then some one who is just doing it because i has to be done!

here is a topic for you!
people who work what % really care about there job/career as if it were there own company!

if that % is more on the side of people who don’t care! then don’t ask why someones home may fall apart! and don’t get jeoulous because the humans in the past had more passion about what they did instead of getting a pay check!
look at buildings how creative they were back in the day.. look at the stamps they are building now! do you feel there is passion in there or greed?

Isn't something great created with the intent of contributing? And not the intent of being exceptional or remarkable? I'm just asking more questions about what Seth Godin wrote. He uses metaphor...but states clearly that he believes that unremarkable is for losers. What does he mean? What is exceptional? What is remarkable? What is remarkable about Coca Cola? Marlboro? McDonalds? What is it? Why do people care? A big yellow M? Rick,

I understand.

If you are contributing as best you know how, it can lead to the exceptional. The reverse isn't necessarily true.
