ABOUT THE ORIGINAL BOOK

In "The Dip: A Little Book That Teaches You When to Quit (and When to Stick)" by Seth Godin, readers are introduced to the concept of the "Dip," the challenging period between starting something new and achieving mastery. The book explores why this difficult phase exists in almost every worthwhile pursuit. Godin argues that understanding the Dip is crucial for success, as it creates scarcity and therefore value. He teaches readers how to recognize the Dip and differentiate it from dead-end situations (Cul-de-Sacs) or dangerous paths (Cliffs), advocating for strategic quitting of the wrong things to focus energy on those Dips worth conquering to become the best in the world.
