Happy Monday Bad Assess
Welcome to October! (Q4 - can you believe it?)
It’s a new month so that means it’s time for a new book for the Bad Ass Bookshelf.
It’s also a fresh opportunity for anyone who feels like they’ve dropped the ball a little on their reading habits over the summer to get back in and finish the year strong.
Remember, you’re welcome to pick the reading style that suits you best, whether that’s the physical book, the audiobook, or your e-reader, it doesn’t matter at all.
Join this reading journey in October.

﹅ Our October read is…
Quit
By Annie Duke
This month, we’re reading Quit by Annie Duke which promises to be a fascinating look at why knowing when to walk away can be one of the smartest decisions you’ll ever make. Drawing on her background as a professional poker player and decision strategist, Annie shows how the world’s best performers master the art of quitting at the right time.
Expect practical tools for making better choices, letting go of sunk costs, and freeing up time and energy for what truly matters. It’s a must-read for anyone who struggles with sticking things out just because, and a refreshing reminder that sometimes, success means stopping.
Buy it now: If you’re buying a physical copy, please try to buy second-hand or from a local, independent store whenever possible.
Otherwise, here’s a link to buy the book on Amazon. You can also listen to it on Audible or get the ebook on Kindle.
