The Dip, by Seth Godin

The Dip: A Little Book that Teaches You When to Quit (and When to Stick) is a great book, simple yet complicated and deep at the same time. Whether you’ve felt stagnant in a job or a relationship, you’ll recognize the tell-tale signs Godin discusses in this short, insightful book.Godin provides a lens for stepping back to assess whether it’s better to hunker down and work through the challenging times (your success may be just around the bend) or to cut losses and redirect energies and time to more productive endeavors.

The Dip, as Godin puts it, is “the long slog between starting and mastery.” Learning how to decipher when to stick it out and when to move on may be one of the most important life skills.

The Nature of Success

I love beautiful pictures of nature. Video has become so ubiquitous of late what with YouTube and the promos pushed via email and other Internet access, but this short The Nature of Success film combines stunning images with inspirational messages.

Think about how these ideas apply to your life, and the steps you could take today to move yourself forward with grace and strength and wisdom. The natural order of things.
