Airplane Mode

Annie Duke on How to Benefit From Being Wrong [Ep.1]

Airplane Mode

Show Notes

Being wrong sucks, but not only for the reasons you think. Guest Annie Duke, former pro poker player and author of "Thinking in Bets: Making Smarter Decisions When You Don't Have All the Facts," has built a life on embracing uncertainty and making the "wrong choice"...and come out the other side with some important advice. She explains how you can make peace with being wrong, why we listen to overconfident people, and how you can use uncertainty in the face of a decision—whether it's ordering dishes at a restaurant or making a major career change— to your advantage. Also discussed: the Crusades, "noodling in public," and (as always) our guest's Favorite F**k-Up.
