Never give up by Paul Lemberg

Never give up by Paul Lemberg.

Never give up. Never, never, never give up.
Winston Churchill

Here’s a success tip if there ever was one:

Don’t Quit.

This elegant tip has such potency, it could single-handedly change your entire world. I could stop here and make this the shortest chapter in the book.

But couple “Don’t Quit,” and “Just Do It,” and you got the complete success formula in five economical words.

It has been said that the only real failure comes from quitting before the job is done. If that is true, you can guarantee a successful outcome by vowing never to quit. It is totally in your control. Never to stop doing until your aims are realized.

Legend says that Thomas Edison tried 10,000 separate filaments for the incandescent light bulb before finding one that did the job. Do you have that kind of stamina? Are you willing to go the distance?

Do you care that much?

Think of the power not quitting would bring to you. Imagine that you knew, no matter what, you would keep going until you got wherever it was you set out for.

What kind of confidence would that lend to your efforts? Would that change the way you related to people? Would it alter the way you asked people for things?

What if things took at turn for the worse? Would you be crushed, or would you simply take things in stride and keep going?

Think this over first, because you don’t want to make a declaration of so much power and then renege on it. See if you are willing to make this kind of commitment, and if so, declare that

“For me, with respect to
_____________________,

quitting is not an option.”
