Many cultures frown on people who give up on things. But is it ever good for everyone involved for someone to quit? Whether it’s a job, a relationship or a dream?

  1. YOU QUIT WHEN “THE OVATION IS LOUDEST”.BUT,IN SOME SITUATIONS,THIS SHOULD NOT BE THE CASE.SO MANY PEOPLE QUIT,JUST WHEN THEY ARE ALMOST “GETTING THERE”.IN ALL ENDEAVOURS,PERSEVERANCE SHOULD BE THE GUIDING PRINCIPLE.”HE WHO LAUGHS LAST,LAUGHS BEST”.SUCCESS COMES TO THOSE WHO PERSEVERE TILL THE END.MANY OF LIFE’S FAILURES ARE THOSE WHO QUIT WHEN THEY ARE ACTUALLY UNAWARE ABOUT THE SUCCESS,WAITING FOR THEM TO BE PLUCKED.QUITTERS NEVER WIN,AND WINNERS NEVER QUIT.NO ONE ACHIEVES SUCCESS ON A PLATTER OF GOLD!

  2. I believe that happiness is one of the most important things in life. If you are no longer happy doing what you are doing then I think it is okay to quit. Yeah, some people may see that as failure or be disappointed, but in the end it’s your happiness and not theirs. You can’t let other people dictate your life forever or you will never achieve true happiness.

  3. Quiting,as been generally viewed/labelled negatively.A higher percentage of folks views is as a literary word for weaklings and failures in life.Frankly speaking it has to do with our individual capabilities and circumstances surrounding us at ????e point in time.For instance,It’s seems difficult giving up some habits like smoking,alcoholism,randy sexual acts,gossip,stealing ????e list is endless while to some is a matter of time to rid of it.????e best time to throw in ????e towel is when you are done with it all;like a girlfriend cheating on you-no matter ????e extent of love she has compromised hence,i walk away,i was once a chain smoker ????e day i got to realise how much ‘chemo’-treatment for managing cancer would cause me and ????e pains attached to it;i don’t need a phychriatrist for me to give it up.Measure ????e pros and cons on ????e balance scale for YOU to know if its time to QUIT.
