http://www.sethgodin.com/sg/Successful author and entrepreneur Seth Godin consistently provides provocative examples of the Fresh Ideas strategy “Be the Contrarian.”

His ability to make you think by highlighting an alternative point of view are on clear display on his  All Marketers Are Liars blog and in this recent post from the Seth Godin blog, which he titled  “Confronting Stupid”:

“…The comedian who fears that each new joke might fail, the writer who has to say something new, the leader who must improvise, solving new problems on a regular basis. What makes this work hard is that it might not work.  More and more people now have jobs that require them to confront the risk of appearing stupid on a regular basis.”
