We’ve all feel like quitting at certain points of any big undertaking, whether it be a university degree, an online business, or a career goal.
When a person wants to quit, they get to a point where they feel they can’t go further because things become boring, repetitive, or too challenging. If they quit, they will be starting off fresh in a new situation, and will most likely find themselves in a similar reality as the one they left behind. The best solution is to break through the challenge barrier, change their thinking about the situation and keep and keep ongoing.
If they have tried to accomplish their goal, and the results aren’t coming it can be very frustrating. That’s when most people feel like quitting and giving up. Sometimes we need to change our approach and reevaluate the goal. Doing the same thing and expecting a different result is the definition of insanity.
