Games help us understand life, @annieduke.com tells @jennygrankin.bsky.social—the best games involve the two things that characterize life and provide the context for the decisions we make—skill, and luck: buff.ly/yMQsF7u

After every decision we make, we have an opportunity to learn how we can reduce uncertainty when making future decisions. Great insight by @annieduke.com in conversation with @jennygrankin.bsky.social: buff.ly/m8HslTO

Persistence is not always a virtue. A good heuristic: when you consider quitting is likely the point at which you should quit, @annieduke.com tells @jennygrankin.bsky.social: buff.ly/Q43aQQ4

“For something as important as decision making, we spend remarkably little time teaching people how to do it.” Matt Grawitch’s latest post builds on @annieduke.com’s framework, suggesting it embraces more explicitly real life emotion, complexity and change: buff.ly/NJECv7R

Thinking about quitting? 🤔Hold that thought 💭and check out this @psychologytoday.com interview,🎙️ where the brilliant @annieduke.com ♣️helps you decide what to do about it: www.psychologytoday.com/us/blog/much... #DecisionEd #IQuit #DecisionMaking @AllDecisionEd

It may go against your intuition, but good decision making is not measured by its *outcome*—it’s a case of adopting a sound framework as a basis for the *process*, argues @annieduke.com: buff.ly/ciaElUt

Classic example of "outcome bias," or what @annieduke.com calls "resulting." To avoid reckless decision processes, read my blog TEAMpubilchealth.substack.com . www.wsj.com/politics/ele...

One thing to learn from Thinking in Bets by @annieduke.com is how every product-related decision is a bet. Building a feature, defining experiments, scoping MVP, you name it. What follows, in the vast majority of cases, smaller bet will be smarter. In other words: build less.

“When we finally quit, we realize we should have done it long ago.” ~ @annieduke.com It always surprises me in how many contexts it stands true. Pulling a plug on a new product idea? Check. Finally, letting an underperformed go? Check. Heck, my marriage... Check.

The highest compliment from someone who disagrees with you is not “You were right.” It’s “You made me think.” Good arguments help us recognize complexity where we once saw simplicity. The ultimate purpose of debate is not to produce consensus. It’s to promote critical thinking.
