Should you ever surrender when things are hard?

A lot of us tend to abandon things we find complicated. Yeah, there are moments in our lives in which we feel like giving up because somethings are "too hard" for us or we feel like we can't keep up. Is it okay to give up? Is it ever okay to throw away everything we've worked for and to demolish where we are now?

Absolutely not. Life isn't easy because if it was, everyone would be where they desired. Success isn't just going to be handed to you on a silver platter. You have to work for it. There will be challenging obstacles that will advance towards us but giving up is not an option. If you fall and scrape your knee, stand up because mistakes happen. We're human. We're going to mess up, but the best thing about that is that you know there's a second chance. You know that there's a way to make it better. It's only the thought that counts.

If you say something's hard, you're already setting yourself up for failure because you're making it impossible for you to fulfill your goal. What you need to do is to have that mind-set that says "it's challenging" instead of  "it's hard". Challenging means that it's not easy and whatever it is that you're trying to do can be accomplished. You just have to want it. You have to have flexibility. You have to push yourself to the next level. Where as hard just means plain old impossible. Like it's not going to happen and if you have that mind-set of saying "it's hard" while trying to achieve your goal, the outcome won't be great.

Don't give up on anything because you never know what type of opportunities you'll be missing out on. That one time you decide you're going to throw in the towel for good, might be the that day that could be a game changer for you.
