The Knot

£16.99

Most persistent problems – at work, in organizations, and in our own lives – aren’t unsolvable. We’ve tried harder. We’ve optimized. We’ve worried about it. And nothing changes. This is the kind of stuckness that shows up for people who lead, create, and build – for those who care deeply, think clearly, and still find themselves going in circles. Some challenges are situations outside our control, best met with acceptance. But others are real problems, capable of being changed. The trouble is, we often can’t tell the difference. That’s because we’re entangled. An entanglement is a hidden commitment that creates conflict beneath the surface: wanting progress without risk, change without loss, or forward motion without letting go of who we were – or who we promised to become. When we want two incompatible things at the same time, effort doesn’t help. We stay stuck. In ‘The Knot’, Seth Godin offers a clear, practical framework.

Description

'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 something invisible is holding it in place.

Every persistent problem – in your career, your organisation, 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.
