In a world designed to rip you and your purpose apart, the only thing more dangerous than moving slowly is moving sporadically.
We live in a “Time of Hares.” It is an era defined by boastful speed, uncritical satisfaction, and a “distraction epidemic” that threatens to pull you away from what matters most. Most people operate in a state of hurriedness that leads to exhaustion, or a state of complacency that leads to missed opportunities.
Enduring Urgency is the antidote. It is the mindset that enables you to work consistently each day so you arrive at your goals early, focused, and whole.
Drawing on the timeless metaphor of the Tortoise and the Hare, David Brown-Dawson provides a high-stakes roadmap to achieving your "ideal smile" through the power of incremental, focused progress. This book provides the definitive framework for anyone tired of starting and stopping, and ready to build a life that lasts.
In this book, you will discover:
• The Enduring Urgency Formula: How to master the intersection of Resilience, Patience, and Consistent Focused Action.
• Legacy Lenses: How to visualize your life two generations into the future to make better choices today.
• The Flywheel Effect: The secret to applying constant force in a specific direction until your momentum becomes unstoppable.
• Success Redefined: Why you are successful the moment you begin the progressive realization of a worthy ideal, regardless of the current result.
• The Cost of Inaction: Why every "missed opportunity" is a choice to give up on your future potential.
Whether you are a young leader looking to steward your influence, a parent building a foundation for your children, or an individual hungry to improve, this book will teach you to move at a "swift and steady" pace in a world that is fast but failing.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
To understand the power of this strategy, consider the metaphor of the teeth aligners: you cannot jump to the final tray on Day 1 without causing pain and failure. You must wear each set in its proper timing, trusting that incremental, daily adjustments are the only way to eventually achieve your ideal smile.
