Snippet 31: Steven Bartlett On Why Quitting Is Your Biggest Strength

Deep Dive with Ali Abdaal

NOTE

A Framework for Deciding Whether to Quit

In a simple framework for decision-making, the author advises considering whether to quit based on two categories: if something is hard or if it sucks. For the hard category, it is important to assess if the hardship is worth the rewards. If it is, don't quit; if not, quit. In the case of something that sucks, one should determine if it can be improved. If not, quit; if it can, consider if the effort to improve is worth the rewards. If not, quit; if so, stay and fight for it.
