I give up?

Hey guys. I was wondering about the "i give up" thing that many of us encountered. I would like to know how did you all eliminate the "i give up"? Care to share your thoughts?

    I just simply understand that my life will s*ck if i am going to give up. And if i fail, i wouldn't lose any much money.

      Right now, giving up is not an option. I've got bills to pay, but use them to keep going and working. My ship hasn't arrived yet, LOL.

    Hi,

    If it's something that you have true passion for, whether it's a paid/non-paid opportunity or work, then 'I Give Up' should not be in your vocabulary.

    'I succeed' should replace it.

    A new daily Mantra for 2010 and beyond.

    Don't give up just make it simple.

    This is the formula I use which works:

    Passion, Purpose, Persistence, Set Goals, Make a plan, Believe it will work, Work the plan

    I think I saw it from Dr Mani originally.

    Sometimes it takes a bigger man to know when to give up.

    If you are losing $xxxx a month... and there is no likeliehood of improvement then giving up and moving on is the best bet.

    Saying that, many business plan to lose money for at least the first five years of business before they will be profitable...

    Look at Amazon for example!

    Hi there, Perhaps instead of asking "shall I give up" ask "why would I give up"

    So "why would I throw away the chance to have control over my own life" well when you quit that's what you give up.

    So "why would you want someone else to decide how much money you will earn" well when you quit you hand someone else that power.

    So "why would you want the stress and guilt feeling that will hit you sooner or later when you have to acknowledge that you are a quitter" well when you quit that is the "present" you give yourself.

    I guess you've realized that you just do not quit on yourself and your loved ones. Yes, you make changes, remodel, refine and persevere and whatever else is needed. The only thing you do not do is give up. So don't!

    good luck

    I actually had to take a break for almost a year. Full time job, plus an ecommerce site, plus all the other stuff was overwhelming.

    I say, just take a break from much of it and come back fresh, with new ideas and energy.

    The question I always ask myself is 'Why Am I Really Doing This'.

    There is an old success parable that says that you can keep climbing the ladder of success all the way to the top only to find that you had your ladder resting against the wrong wall.

    A strong reason why will help you overcome the inveitable challenges along the way. It will help you to stay focussed when you feel like giving up.

    A good method is to use Zero-Based Thinking. For whatever or whoever you are into now, ask yourself: 'Knowing what I know now, would I do this again?' If the answer is, 'No' then the next decision is how to get out of it and how quickly.

    Giving up is selling yourself to failure.

      I've been away from Warrior for almost a year, but, most certainly NOT for "giving up" - rather my choice of other opportunities to prosper in new business opportunities, to live and love.

      God doesn't give up. Every day, He presents a brand new sunrise, with a horizon loaded with opportunities to choose from. Yes, there are days when clouds of confusion, when things aren't working the we wish, when the news media screams despair, et al - but, when you open your eyes to SEE the bountiful opportunities presented with each sunrise, how could you possibly "give up"?

      Possibly, some opportunities you choose may divert you from the "norm" of your everyday activities, however, all of life should be an adventure in learning new things, investigating and taking advantage of new business opportunities, re-invigorating your personal life, and more.

        Never give up! Give yourself time to rest after a draining week or so of labor, then start your engine again towards IM success..
