I borrowed a book from a friend by one of now my favorite author Seth Godin. The title was "Free Prize Inside" and I'm not finished reading it yet from the time that I'm typing this. The person whom I borrowed the book "Free Prize Inside" bought the book at a very huge discount. He bought the book for ten pesos(Philippine peso). I searched on how much that would be in U.S dollars, in the internet of course. The book cost my friend $0.23 while in amazon it is worth $8.95 for a brand new one. Almost a free prize.
On my last post I strip some pages from the book which is...yeah you know. To be specific, it is page 54 and 55. I'm not sure if it is right to copy every word from those pages and paste them all in a blog post. Anyway, I just got curious by the topic in that book. It is about what is doing hard and what is doing difficult. Is there any difference? For most people they're both have the same meaning but Seth Godin, a world renowned marketer says there was a great difference.
Seth explains the difference of doing what is hard to what is difficult. In fact he explain it so well that I can't add more to it except to this based on my understanding. A hard work is about doing some strenuous task, with great physical effort and most of the time in a routine and predictable manner. While doing what is difficult is about challenging the status quo, make some decisions that create great impact, taking responsibility for your own ideas, etc. You get the idea.
Businesses, organizations or any group of people with the same goals and mindsets just like the activists fighting against animal cruelty or persuaders companies to help minimized the pain of global warming in the planet.
One of my fault(maybe) is not commenting on my last blog post. Well, this is it.
