I have felt the urge to give up on something. It’s easy to get to a point where it seems as though the time you’ve invested in a dream or goal and the time of fruition can be very daunting.
There are cycles of excitement, enthusiasm, creativity, and they are followed by despair, discouragement, and the desire to quit.
Why Do We Give Up Easily?
Our brains are wired to giving up easily, it’s normal. Human beings are believed to act upon the “Pleasure Principle,” the instant gratification.

Instant gratification is the desire to experience pleasure or fulfilment without delay or deferment. Basically, it’s when you want it; and you want it now.

We’re born to look for instant gratification because in the ancient times, getting immediate benefits was essential for survival. We are very much present-oriented, and so when we’re not getting what we want immediately, we get anxious and want to give up.

Yes, so once in a while, wanting to give up is normal. But giving up is not okay.

Maybe you’re disappointed or tired because you haven’t succeeded yet after lots of trials, or maybe you’re experiencing one of these: Why We Lose Motivation Once in a While and How to Fix It

But don’t you give up yet because nothing worth having comes easy. The Consequence of Giving Up Too Early, Instant success is a myth, always. Many successful people failed hundreds of times, if they chose to give up instead of working harder to reach their goals, they would never succeed.
Do what your future self will thank you for, not regret. Here’re things to do when you feel like you want to give up.

1. Remember Why You Started and How Much You Really Wanted It
Think back to the moment that this project, goal, or concept was conceived. Remember the joy and thrill of the adventure ahead? At the beginning, you had a goal in mind; a beautiful picture etched in your mind of the finished task. Beginning was simple; carrying through has become difficult.

Going back to the beginning brings into focus the purpose of your endeavor. The memory of anticipation of the job accomplished is stirred up again when you begin to contemplate the reason you began in the first place. Breathe in deep and recall your purpose.

2. Look Into the Reason Why You Want to Give Up.
The feelings of wanting to quit can be overwhelming. The generalized feeling isn’t clear; look at the reasons why you want to quit. Are you physically tired? Have you been consumed with things and not taken care of yourself in the process? Do you feel little support? Are you lacking ability? Have you come up against some difficulties that you are unprepared for? Do you need to just take a step back before continuing on?
There are many reasons why you may want to quit. Be diligent in figuring out what the real issues are and tackle them specifically. Once you see what is causing the feeling, you can address it.

3. Picture in Your Mind the Ultimate Result
Keep in your mind the picture of the end result. A visualization of what you want to accomplish will keep you moving forward. I mean, seriously, you don’t want to stop partway through. The feeling of being a quitter isn’t pleasant. You are a winner! Remember the slogan: the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat!
Whenever you want to quit, ask yourself, do you want the thrill of victory? Or would you rather the agony of defeat? Press on; you can do this.

4. Make a Plan and Have a Backup
Before you undertake anything, always have an outlined plan of action. There are various ways this can be done. You can write a list, make a breakout chart, or form a checklist for tasks completed along the way. By having a plan in place, when you feel like giving up you can look at the plan and refocus on the steps needed to reach the goal. Also, have a backup plan in mind before beginning; this way when you are frustrated and want to give up, you will have an alternative plan to put in action.

5. Find Support From Others
Don’t isolate yourself or hide your feelings of frustration, and don’t be afraid to seek support from others. Reach out to family, friends, co-workers or even online forums to find someone that you can talk to and rid yourself of what is dragging you down and causing you to want to quit.

I promise there are so many other people out there that are struggling with feelings of doubt, fear and frustration just like you are. Finding another person who has gone through a similar crisis will strengthen your resolve and help you get back on course.

6. Be Grateful for the Good Things While Struggling.
Yes, you may feel like giving up. Yes, you are struggling. Yes, you are overwhelmed at the moment. I know this may seem like a strange thing to say, but remember to be grateful. This is essential in a resilient mindset.

Whenever you feel like giving up, stop and make a list of the things you are grateful for in your life. You have so much positivity in your life to be thankful for. When you shift your focus to becoming grateful for all things, tasks that seem overwhelming take on a new light. The way you look at the situations around you depends on the attitude with which you view them. Take on an attitude of gratitude and you will be amazed at the difference it makes.

7. Celebrate Your Victories, No Matter How Small They Seem
You deserve to acknowledge all the victories that you have made along the way. Instead of feeling overwhelmed at all that you have left to do, write out a list of accomplishments you have already completed, no matter how small they may seem.

By celebrating your progress, you will renew your energy to complete what you are doing. When you see all that you have done, it will excite you to take further action until the finish line.

Don’t give up!!! Press ahead.

I remember during the era of MMM, I lost close to 100k and last year, I lost close to 200k on gambling, the fact is that, the moment I learned how to played bet9ja virtual, everything change from thousand-naires to 0-naire. Well, that's story for another day. Lemme stop here.

Lesson: if you're addicted to gambling, Hmmm, please and please, destroy it before it destroy you, yes some are making it through gambling but the ratio of those making to it to those paying the price is like ratio 10:90.
Here are the problem of chronic gambler
1. At the end of the year, they won't be able to have anything to point to as their achievement.
2. They will always complaining that there's no money all the time.
3. No progress in their life, when their mate are buying lands, building houses, buying cars, all they do is silent crying and from there to depression and depression to death.
Be responsible in everything you do, God will help you all.

You'll agree with me that, we learn everyday and no one is Omini-know all. We've done something wrong, something unimaginable and probably, we are paying for that very mistake in a hard way, in fact it could have lead to depression, setback, stagnation even, it has lead to death of some people.
What is that mistake you've made and you're regretting it now, kindly share it and let others to learn from it.

It's funny though, the first messaged that I received this morning from one lady that I have been disturbing, she didn't said no neither yes, but today, I just received wedding invitation from her. I was perplexed, but what can I do, I just open the PDF and found out that it was April Fool that was inside, it pained

Woo, make una forget sleep, person wey no get money, how him wan take sleep well. Money nah motivation joo.

4000,

It's very easy, this is the solution, as we are aware that the fault isn't from either student nor the landlord, then, both will reach agreement, landlord can forgo at least 3 month rent , then after the 3 months, student should have source for fund to pay their rent. That's just my own opinion shaa

Activistman:
Such an ungrateful and self-centred group of literate people.

Sir, you forgot to add "LITERATE- illiterate corrupt people.

I guess the reason why the figure is low today is because Lagos weren't included, but is it possible shaa for Lagos not to record any case for now.


If you wish to quote me, reason it out also, 70 cases yesterday, today non, hmmm

No Lagos State update, or ain't I see very well,

To the accountant in the house, it might be error of omission or original entry

What do I know self.

We are getting there, corona at it peak

DonMustafa:
All those people dropping bank details everywhere begging for money, I have advice for you. Go and do online dating because white people have good hearts. If you meet a white person online, become their friend for a week or 2, then you explain your problem to them, they will assist you. Nigerians will only look and pass. If they help you, it is N5k max. But white people have pity.

If it is only $500 the person sends, $1 now is N400. $500 is N200,000. Imagine what N200,000 will do in your life now. This is what I did last year December and I was able to raise money to open a betting shop that is feeding me today.

You can use free sites like Facebook. But on free sites, it is hard to find people. If possible, use a paid dating site. You can see dating sites for as low as $29. I used a site called Bit Mistress to get the white lady who helped me. You can try it too. It is very cheap.

Though, it doesn't related to the topic, however you've actually enlighten some people, well lemme call it, it's paid to teach how to fish than giving fish to some1 every time, if know 1 appreciate this, Oga! I got ur back. Kudos

Na wa oo, when is this trash going to end, increasing everyday.





It's well.

What's happening dis days, God have mercy
