The Dip: When to Quit and When to Stick by Seth Godin
A New York Times, USA Today, and Wall Street Journal bestseller

But maybe it’s really a Cul-de-Sac-a total dead end. What really sets superstars apart is the ability to tell the two apart.
Winners seek out the Dip. They realize that the bigger the ...
