The Quitting Expert: Quit Now Before AI Makes the Choice for You, This Is a Superpower! - Seth Godin (Video)

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


In this 10 August 2026 published video, host Steven Bartlett talks with bestselling author Seth Godin who reveals why perfectionism is keeping you stuck, the hidden psychology behind success, when to quit, when to keep going, and why AI will reward the most human people!

Godin is one of the world’s most influential business thinkers and the author of more than 20 bestselling books. He is host of the podcast Akimbo, author of a daily blog read by 1 million people, and coordinator of The Carbon Almanac project, a tool that helps people understand the climate crisis. His upcoming book, The Knot, will be published in September 2026. 

He explains:

Why being “good enough” is often better than being the best
Why quitting is sometimes the smartest path to long-term success
The hidden reason you’re stuck between the life you want and the life you have
Why trying to please everyone guarantees you’ll be ignored
Why consistency beats authenticity almost every time
