Why "Baby Steps"?

"What About Bob?" is a Boland family favorite. The main character in the movie is Bob Wiley, a multiphobic psychiatric patient who has difficulty leaving his own apartment. Dr. Leo Marvin, Bob's therapist, recommends his self-help book, "Baby Steps", to Bob. "Baby Steps" is "about setting small reasonable goals for yourself. One day at a time. One tiny step at a time."  And like Bob, James is doing the work, he is not a slacker!
