Business people are more likely to think that they’re more likely to win the game if they can rationalize their decisions. But how do you live with indecision? Annie Duke, author of Thinking in Bets, retired as a professional poker player after winning a world championship. With a Ph.D. in psychology, Duke tries to offer advice about emotional controls and decision making. Her approach offers a sense of order in disorder. Her latest obsession is on the topic of quitting. In particular, she is on a mission to rehabilitate the term and get people to be proud of walking away from things.
