Hang In There

No matter what, hang in there. Never give up. Never quit. If you quit once, you will quit again. Don’t be a quitter, be a winner.

When you are going through tough times- in life, in your business, in your relationships, never quit. Hang in there. Give it one more chance to survive. When things are really tough, remember your goals, remember your dreams. Remember the reasons you are doing what you are doing. You are in your job for a reason. Always remember “why.”

Tough times are not meant to break you, they are a part of who we are as human beings. There is no growth without trying times. When things are tough, don’t give up. Focus on the results, not the problems, not the obstacles. You will face obstacles, but don’t let them be your main focus. If you focus too much on the obstacles, you will stop trying. And if you stop trying, you have given up.

You are not a loser until you quit what you are pursuing. You are not a loser until you quit reaching toward your goals. You are not a loser until you call yourself a loser. You are not a loser until you fall down and never get up.

Instead of quitting, stop and take a break. Reflect on what you have been doing. Change your strategies if you have to. Assess yourself for what you think is stopping you from moving forward. If you cannot figure them yourself, it is time to seek professional help. Don’t waste your time trying to change what you cannot change. Change what you can change. If you cannot help yourself, seek help from a trusted mentor. Make sure the person understands your situation. Don’t quit because it is too hard, quit because you have finished your job.

Winston Churchill said,”Never, Never, Never give up!” Yes, you should never give up.

Imperfection

If you want to be perfect in life before you do something, you are going to wait for ever. It is not going to happen. No one is perfect. You don’t have to be perfect before you start something. You have to start to be perfect. If you don’t start, how can you be perfect?

If you start today, you will be perfect tomorrow. If you don’t start today, you will be imperfect tomorrow. I have never seen anyone who mastered something before they start. They start to master it.

You won’t be perfect every day, and when you stop trying to be perfect, you’ll end up better in the long run.”- Lindsey Pollak, the author of Becoming the Boss

To do great things in life, focus on what you can do. Don’t focus on what you cannot do. If you do, it will suck up your energy. Focus on what you can do well, and use it to your benefit. People don’t do something because they focus on their flaws. They focus on their weaknesses, on their flaws, on their mistakes, or on their disappointments. If you focus on your imperfection, you are killing your creativity. To be creative, you have to allow yourself to make mistakes, to be imperfect, and to be who you are.

You don’t have to be perfect before you start something. You have to start to be perfect.”

If you want to be perfect, don’t see your imperfection as a problem. See it as a chance to get better at what you do. Nobody is perfect.
