#18 - Knowing When to Quit on Your Dreams

Quitting is a Good Thing

You should quit.

Quitting is hard because it’s a recognition that one path isn’t working.

Not quitting is the slow, grind of failure that never gets acknowledged.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why you should be open to new dreams and interests

  • Give yourself time to pursue dream but a deadline to reassess progress

  • The strongest signal to quit is looking at what you care to learn more about

Bits of Chris: The Podcast for Augmented Engineers
AI can't replace you.
But you need to adapt how you work.
Augmented Engineers invest their time in learning, thinking, creativity, and soft skills.
They leverage AI tools for what LLMs are good at - distillation, retrieval, boiler plate generation.
While they focus on amplifying their unique, human strengths - thinking, creativity, empathy.
Hosted by Chris Lettieri, a Staff Data Engineer optimizing large time series datasets for deep learning, the Bits of Chris Podcast is the show for Staff+ engineers interested in deep learning, soft skills, building their second brains, and amplifying their humanity to future-proof their careers.
Follow along to become an Augmented Engineer.
Remember - Augment, Stay Human.
