When to Quit

Today, I received a newsletter from Andrew Matthews. In case you are notfamiliar with who he is, Andrew is an international best selling author of 3books; "Being Happy", "Follow Your Hearts" and "Making Friends".In his newsletter, he talked about "When to quit?" and I thought, "How trueit is and how we can all relate to it in our quest for success."Andrew wrote, "Imagine you've started learning piano - and already you arethinking: 'This is too hard. Maybe I'll learn the guitar...' Or imagineyou've begun selling real estate. And you can't believe how many dealscollapse!" You ask yourself, "Is it time to quit and look for somethingeasier?" Well, according to him, "the best time to quit is AFTER YOU'VESUCCEEDED!" "Why? Because, success is more about persistence than talent.""Until you can play a dozen songs on your piano, you'll never know thethrill of making music. Until you have sold maybe twenty properties, you'llnever know if it's more fun being a successful agent than being a starvingagent."I couldn't agree more, our challenge is not that we do not have atarget/goal in mind, but very likely, the majority of us do not have thestrength of mind to hang in there until the goal or aim becomes a reality.
I am sure you would agree that in every quest for success, one must have theperseverance to hold on long enough to reach the goal. Wouldn't it be morefulfilling, with the reward in hand, only then you decide if you want tocarry on or quit.
Hang in There my Friends until you have Succeeded!!!
