Importance of never give up: When Going Gets Tough, the Tough Get Going



I Quit…….



I cannot………



I failed…………



I am tired of my efforts…….



I am fed up…….



I lost my confidence……



I don’t have any way……



I lost the vision of my life……



When life gives us repeated failures and breaks, definitely we used to say one among those words. Yes, it is common. We are all humans. Whenever we face failure, that too continuously irrespective of our full dedication, there are some places where we feel QUITTING in the efforts.



Is quitting our aim, is good? Not at all. Our life has various challenges and hurdles. At times we give up internal confidence when nothing goes in the way we planned or things go in the different directions.



It doesn’t make any sense when we say “success comes to a person on the very first day or at the very first attempt. Many inventors and discoverers, have struggled for years for achieving in their attempts. Most of the achievers in various fields have faced number of defeats, before they can climb to the position that they dreamed always. Our life travel is not a smoother one. The ways are built with rough and sharp thorns, numerous hold-ups. If we give up each and every time when we encounter an obstruction, we will not accomplish anything.



From my life experiences I can tell three most important reasons why one should never give up:



Trust yourself, you have survived a lot and you will survive whatever is coming.”



In my initial days of establishing my goals, I have faced many downs rather that stepping forward. My dad advised  me, “failure teaches us that we are going wrong in our attempt and to change the present course of action and gives us the vision of changing our ways in another positive direction”.it took more time for me understand and realize this. After realizing the essence of his words I realized two things in my life. The first is the lessons that I learn from my failure and the second is self-help that I can do to myself to recover from my failure. Yes , my dear sisters, no one can help us, than we are realising that “only we can support ourselves in a better way and the  confidence that we gain in our failures in our life.



Determination in the hardships:



If we give up in our attempts even in the first and second step, or even before the life race has started, people will never realise or will get a chance to know, what awaits them at the end of their journey? The one and one magical words that I chanted in my hardships is DETERMINATION. There is no substitution for hard work and there is no short way or cross way to success. When all these combines the final achievements will be breath-taking and incredible.



Getting the feeling of satisfied is inestimable:



When I didn’t quit in my commitment, at the end of the road where I realise that I have achieved my goals, I got a complete satisfaction feeling. Which can be never described in words. I feel that the feeling of getting satisfied is priceless, when we achieve in our attempt, regardless of the repeated failures and the negative comments given by others.



 



Finally i can tell that:



 “Rome was not built in a day. Every person should recollect this long-standing saying when the sense of leaving twitches to be a genuine thought.”



There are specific seconds in life when one desires to step back. However, it should certainly not be muddled with the action of giving up. It simply point to that the individual has done the whole thing one could and documented that nothing extra could be done. There does exist this delicate variance among stepping back and giving up. While the former gives a sense of unhappiness and downfall, the last conveys a sensitivity of comfort that one has at least finished an effort.
