“I know I’ll win because I don’t quit!”
But here is where most people
misunderstand the idea of quitting and misinterpret statements like, “A winner
never quits!”
There is no reason to keep
putting your energy into something that isn’t working. Personally, I’ve learned that the only time
I’m “quitting” is when I’m not pursuing and fulfilling the purpose of my life. And while I know I will occasionally take the
wrong path while trying to reach my goals,
I’ve also learned that continuing down the wrong path after I’ve figured
out it’s the wrong path….. Well that’s just a waste of time and energy!
Don’t confuse changing directions to reach
your goals as quitting on your goals all together. Whether you’re looking for a new career that
lines up with your passions, new relationships, new places to live, new
schools, new ways to save money, or new ways to develop your dreams, you’ve got
to quit what isn’t working on occasion so you can refocus your energy and time
into a new approach. Remember, the caterpillar
had to quit being a caterpillar before it could become a butterfly.
Successful people know when to quit
something that isn’t working and refocus their energy on a new path. They understand that success is created by using the trial
and error approach while not losing focus on discovering and
fulfilling their overall purpose.
Are you a quitter?
Maybe you should be...
“The first thing most people need to quit is
to quit believing that the only path offered to them is the only path available.”
