Praise for Quit "This brilliant and entertaining book documents a major flaw in human actions and decisions: the bias against quitting. I learned a lot from its compelling tales of failures and sound recommendations. You will too." --Daniel Kahneman, author of Thinking, Fast and Slow "Engrossing, important, and grounded in science, Quit is a gem that will allow you to navigate the world more effectively." --Katy Milkman, author of How to Change "A game-changing book of strategy from a world-class thinker on risk and decision-making." --Shane Parrish, host of The Knowledge Project podcast "There aren't many times you will say, "this book changed my life." This is one of them." --Seth Godin, author of The Practice "Only a poker player could write this classic book on when--and more importantly how--to fold a bad hand in business, investing, relationships and life.
" --Ryan Holiday, author of Courage Is Calling "The opposite of a great virtue is also a virtue. And Quit is the perfect dialectical complement to Grit . Weave these two virtues into your character and live a much more fulfilling life." --Philip Tetlock, author of Superforecasting "Every business school has a course in starting new businesses, but few have a course in shutting them down at the right time. This book fills that gap with brilliant new insights and fantastic stories. Quit what you are doing right now and start reading this book." --Richard Thaler, coauthor of Nudge "Quitting is not just an art; it's also a science - and there is no one so uniquely suited to teach us both as Annie Duke." --Brian Christian, coauthor of Algorithms to Live By "Not since Kenny Rogers has an expert storyteller so clearly demonstrated the importance of knowing when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em, nor presented a clearer strategy to determine when, instead of merely walking away, it's time to run.
" --David McRaney, author of How Minds Change "You won't want to quit reading this book, both because it is such a rewarding read and also because its lessons are so important, useful, and memorable." --Don Moore, author of Perfectly Confident.
