Embracing the Power of Quitting: A Path to Happiness and Success
Rethinking Perseverance: When to Hold On and When to Let Go
In a society that emphasizes persistence and determination, it’s refreshing to encounter a contrarian view that suggests quitting can be a liberating and essential tool for achieving happiness and success. Authors Peg Streep and Alan B. Bernstein present a compelling case for mastering the art of quitting in their book, Mastering the Art of Quitting: Why It Matters in Life, Love, and Work.

By recognizing when it’s time to quit, we can break free from the cycle of persistence and discover new opportunities for growth and fulfillment.
