From early on we have received much advice from our parents, teachers, and relatives and out of that one piece of advice stands common which all of us have heard one time in our life that is don't quit, never give up and success will come. Although it is true, if we follow this blindly we are bound to fail.⠀
There are certain things in life which we need to quit whether it is quitting a failure career or business or leaving your untrustworthy relationship. So quitting is not bad. In reality, winners are the biggest quitters. ⠀
⠀
But there are a few things which we need to see before quitting. ⠀
⠀
1) First, are you quitting because you are tired or you see that there is no future to this career? Quitting should be based upon lack of opportunity, not laziness. ⠀
⠀ ⠀
2) See there will be some people who will always hate you no matter what you do. So see that you are not quitting because of some individuals comments. But if the whole market isn't responding then quit. ⠀
⠀
3) And lastly, see how much progress you are making every day. Success doesn't happen overnight. But If it doesn't happen after a year struggle too then quit.⠀
This was about quitting things which don't like or things which don't have the future. The question is what to do after quitting?
To which author says that do things in which you can become number 1. Now think if you had a heart attack where you will to a doctor who is No 1 in treating it or the one who has just started.
You will go to the best person and that what the majority of people will do.
This is the benefit of becoming number 1 where you can get lots of money just by word of mouth.
Remember your goal in life should be to become No 1 in whatever you do. If you can't become that Quit it and try something else.⠀
