Why read it?

1 author picked The Dip as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I love this book because it is ridiculously simple but also ridiculously powerful. This short book can be read in one sitting, and it has a simple message about pushing through when times get tough. Seth Godin is one of my favorite writers, and this book exemplifies why. It is mostly motivational but with enough techniques to be actionable.

I find myself re-reading this book periodically, especially when business or life gets frustrating.
