Assigned "reading":

https://www.econtalk.org/annie-duke-on-the-power-of-quitting/

• Note: If you have a preferred podcast app (e.g. Stitcher, Spotify, iTunes, etc.) search for "EconTalk Annie Duke Quitting" and you should be able to find it with little effort.

After listening to the podcast above I want you to:

1. Write a short (one paragraph) summary. It doesn't have to cover everything (it's a summary, after all), but should describe what you think is the most important point from each essay.
2. Write a short (one or two paragraphs) responding to the reading. For example, you might try to connect it to something from your life (or the life you plan for yourself). You might disagree with some point. This is very open ended, I just want to see that you'rethinkingabout the reading.

Your assignment should be about one page long.

This is going to be the default format for our reading assignments all semester. Take advantage of this opportunity to practice your writing.
