From the bestselling author of Linchpin, Tribes, and The Dip comes an elegant little book that will inspire artists, writers, and entrepreneurs to stretch and commit to putting their best work out into the world.

Creative work doesn't come with a guarantee. But there is a pattern to who succeeds and who doesn't. And engaging in the consistent practice of its pursuit is the best way forward.

Based on the breakthrough Akimbo workshop pioneered by legendary author Seth Godin, The Practice will help you get unstuck and find the courage to make and share creative work. Godin insists that writer's block is a myth, that consistency is far more important than authenticity, and that experiencing the imposter syndrome is a sign that you're a well-adjusted human. Most of all, he shows you what it takes to turn your passion from a private distraction to a productive contribution, the one you've been seeking to share all along.

With this book as your guide, you'll learn to dance with your fear. To take the risks worth taking. And to embrace the empathy required to make work that contributes with authenticity and joy.

I met Seth Godin at JFK in December of 2019 and love his work. Was very delighted to see this at Penguin so I ordered it right away. If you want to learn the magic of the creative process, this book is a must!

As the title states, a good portion of this book can apply to things other than magic. It's very inspirational from the first page on. I highly recommend it!

I guess I'm a long-time fan of Seth's stuff. As such, likely very biased. :-)

This doesn't disappoint. I like the cards (well produced), and learned a new thing (what's a stripper deck, and how to use one).

Honestly, that makes the mechanics behind some card tricks rather obvious. (yay? :-) )

Can definitely recommend.

Oh, and the "free" trick that went with it is also rather nice.

Thank you penguin magic, and thank you, Seth.
