A fashion designer who never made the Olympics and started her career at forty. A hip-hop musical that took sixteen years to write. An infamous painter who never sold a picture in his lifetime. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFrom the bedrooms of Cleveland to the boardrooms of Silicon Valley. From a heavyweight fight at a torn-down arena to an amusement park emptied by a pandemic. From a tech mogul who got fired from his own company to a basketball legend who got cut from his own team. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eAcross 22 chapters and 3 interludes, Stop Stopping moves through quiet, ordinary lives that turned out to be anything but. It's about a brick from a torn-down elementary school. A racetrack outside Cleveland where a grandfather taught his grandson how to bet the ponies. A guitar learned for the right person on a beach under a decent moon. That same grandpa who started with a broom on the manufacturing plant floor and didn't put it down for fifty years. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eLarry Jaeger has spent decades in executive leadership roles across some of the most iconic companies in tech, fintech, and crypto and has built and lost a few of his own. He's watched people quit right before their moment. He's watched himself almost quit more times than he can count. And he's come to believe that the difference between the people who arrive and the people who don't isn't talent, or timing, or luck. \u003cb\u003eIt's just Stop Stopping. \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eFor readers of Bruce Springsteen's Born to Run, Bob Iger's The Ride of a Lifetime, and Anne Lamott's Traveling Mercies.\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eThis is a book about what happens when you don't put it down.\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Larry Jaeger\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9798234161536\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Stop Stopping Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 08\/02\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 142\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.44lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.30d","brand":"Larry Jaeger","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":49174476947711,"sku":"9798234161536","price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_81c6015e-712b-488f-ad14-46df20872fb5.jpg?v=1788959845","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/stop-stopping-larry-jaeger-9798234161536","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
