Achievers Wisdom #035: Quiting is Never an Option if You Have a Burning Desire For Success

“Success seems to be connected with action, successful men keep moving. They make mistakes, but they don’t quit.” -Corrad Helton

We all do at one time or another when our outcome is not up to or below desired result or when our huge effort is not positively correlated with the outcome achieved. Believe me, no one ever say it’s going to be easy, if that is your expectation, it is better never to start. Maria V. Snyder, said. “I never said it would be easy. Giving up is easy.” No! That is not meant to scare you, but to prepare your mind. That narrows down the pain of any temporary failure and reduces your thought of quitting. “Pain is temporary. Quitting lasts forever.” ― Lance Armstrong.

The great American basketball player and businessman, Michael Jeffrey Jordan observed, “If you quit ONCE it becomes a habit. Never quit!!!” Believe it or not, it is a reality. John A. Passaro knew Michael Jeffrey Jordan (MJ) better when he says “Just imagine what would have happened if Michael Jordan quit after getting cut from his High School Basketball team?” Imagine what and where you would have being if you have quit trying to survive or succeed for years. We all have some past story of quitting that we did not that become a success story, always think about that. Norman Vincent Peale advised you say to yourself whenever you are in such situation “It's always too soon to quit!”

“Quitting is the easiest thing to do.” – Robert Kiyosaki, I think he meant it is the trait of lazy people. Listen to what Toni Sorenson has to say on this “The secret is not following the right path, it's following that right path to the end. Don't quit, my friend, until you've arrived.” “If you quit on the process, you are quitting on the result.” ― Idowu Koyenikan. He also said “At the end, someone or something always gives up. It is either you give up and quit or the obstacle or failure gives up and makes way for your success to come through.” There are times when quitting is not a failure; when you stop to think about a better way to achieve the dream rather than being stubborn.

Thanks for taking time to read to the end.
