"Most of us have had this experience: browsing through countless options on Netflix, unable to commit to watching any given movie--and losing so much time skimming reviews and considering trailers that it's too late to watch anything at all.

He shares what we can learn from the 'long-haul heroes' who courageously commit themselves to particular places, professions, and causes"--Dust jacket flap.
