Key Insights from Seth Godin
Quit the Right Things, Faster
One of the most dangerous beliefs in business is that quitting is always failure. Seth Godin turns that idea upside down by arguing that winners quit all the time; they simply quit the wrong things quickly so they can focus on the right things deeply. The issue is not whether you quit, but what you ...
From The Dip
The Dip Separates Beginners from the Best
Every worthwhile pursuit becomes harder right after the beginning. That is not a flaw in the process; it is the process. Godin calls this difficult stretch the dip, the period between the excitement of starting and the rewards of becoming truly good. The dip is where enthusiasm fades, complexity ris...

This is why endurance, when applied in the right place, has economic value. It reduces competit...

When people wait until they are tired, embarrassed, or under pressure, they tend to either quit too soon o...
