Duke argues that life is more like poker than chess. Embracing uncertainty and separating decision quality from outcome quality leads to dramatically better judgement.
The books Annie Duke references, cites, and recommends most frequently.
by Daniel Kahneman
Kahneman reveals that our minds run on two systems: fast intuition and slow deliberation. Most errors in judgement come from trusting System 1 when the situation demands System 2's careful analysis.
by Richard Thaler
Thaler and Sunstein argue that small changes in how choices are presented, nudges, can dramatically improve decisions without restricting freedom. Choice architecture is a powerful tool for public policy and beyond.

Dweck argues that believing talent is fixed leads to stagnation, while a growth mindset, the belief that abilities develop through effort, unlocks potential. How you frame challenge determines whether you learn or quit.
