Do you or your startup wants to be the best in the wold at something? Know this at least! :)
Long time ago my mentor thought me the following simple serinity prayer
In other words knowing when to quit and when to stick to your guns. Especially when you have a major project on your hands and start out with a lot of energy, making huge strides toward to your goal. You’re firing on all cylinders. You’re excited and motivated. Then you hit the wall(dip). That is where this prayer comes handy.
So the qusetion is When to Quit and When to Stick??? According to Seth Godin, while quitting is often a poor snap decision made under stress, under the right circumstances it is a smart choice for turning around a dead-end situation.
Please watch 8min video summery of Seth's Book.

The reason that being the best in the world is worth so much is that only few can do it. Scarcity carries a premium. We fail when we give up too soon, or when we get distracted by tasks that we don't have the guts to quit. Seth says the DIP is the long stretch between beginner’s luck and real accomplishment.
