**
*At some point in the various journeys we embark on in our lives, we get
to a part where we feel like giving up. Sometimes we give up before we even
start and other times we give up just before we are about to make that huge
break-through that we have been putting so much effort in to achieve.*
*Here is a list of 22 reasons why you should never give up and I hope that
you will find it before you give up, so that I can inspire you to keep
going!*
*1- As Long As You Are Alive Anything Is Possible*
*The only valid excuse you have to give up is if you are dead. As long as
you are alive (and healthy and free) you have the choice to keep trying
until you finally succeed.*
*2- Be Realistic*
*The chance of mastering something the first time you do it is almost
non-existent. Everything takes time to learn and you will make mistakes.
Learn from them.*
*3- Michael Jordan*
*Arguably the best basketball player of all time. He attributes his success
to all his failures. He just never gave up even when he knew he had missed
over 300 shots and had missed the winning shot of the game many times. Every
time he got knocked down he got back up again.*
*4- Lance Armstrong*
*Lance was diagnosed with serious cancer that had spread throughout his
entire body. He had cancer cells the size of golf balls in his lungs.
Despite all odds he overcame the cancer and set out to win the Tour de
France 6 Consecutive years in a row.*
*5- Muhammad Ali*
*"Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee". Muhammad Ali is one of the best
boxers the world has ever known. He suffered only 5 losses while having 56
wins and was the first boxer to win the lineal heavyweight championship
three times. This is a guy who literally knows how to get knocked down and
get back up.*
*6- The Man Who Created The Marathon*
*Very long ago an Athenian herald was sent to Sparta to get help when the
Persians landed in Greece. It was said that he ran 240km in 2 days and after
that he ran 40km to announce the victory of the Greeks only to collapse and
die on the spot from exhaustion. If you ever feel like things are difficult,
imagine what it would be like to run 240km in 2 days. (Don't try that
because you might die from it, but use it as an inspiration).*
*7- Chris Gardner – The Pursuit of Happiness*
*Have you seen the movie "The Pursuit of Happiness"? It is based on the life
story of Chris Gardener, a man who went for the lowest of the lows in an
environment where most people would give up (no money, no job) to the
highest of the highs (A millionaire with his own investment firm). If you
ever think about giving up, watch this movie!*
*8- Kanye West*
*I'm pretty sure you have heard of the rapper Kanye West. Read his story. He
is a big inspiration for me and proves that you can go from having very
little to being among the most famous and respected people in the world.*
*9- Nelson Mandela*
*Campaigned for justice and freedom in his South Africa. Spent 20 years in
jail for his opposition to apartheid. On release he healed the wounds of
apartheid by his magnanimous attitude toward his former political enemies.*
*10- You Are Strong *
*You are stronger than you think. One little setback is not enough to stop
you from achieving your goals. Neither are 10 or 100 or 1000 setbacks.*
*11- Prove Yourself*
*You don't want to be known as someone that is weak and gives up. Go out
there and prove yourself to the world and to yourself. You CAN and WILL
achieve what you set out to do. The only time you fail is when you give up.*
*12- Has It Been Done Before?*
*If someone else can do it then so can you. Even if it is only one other
person in the world that has achieved what you have set out to achieve, that
should be reason enough for you to never give up.*
*13- Believe In Your Dreams*
*Don't sell yourself short. In life there are going to be many people who
will try to bring you down and tell you what you want to achieve is not
possible. Don't let anyone destroy your dreams.*
*14- Your Family and Friends.*
*Let the people you love and who mean the world to you be your inspiration
to persist and persevere. Maybe you need to try a different angle, study
more or practice more but don't give up!*
*15- Because I Tell You To.*
*Not that I am any sort of guru or Godly figure, but if you want to give up
then don't. Just because I'm telling you not to.*
*16- There Are People Worse-Off*
*Right now there are many people who are in a worse situation and
environment than you are right now. Are you thinking about giving up running
5 miles a week? Think about the people who are unable to even walk and how
much they would give to be able to run 5 miles every day.*
*17- Improve Our World*
*When you achieve whatever you set out to achieve you can use your success
to make a difference to the world or other peoples lives.*
*18- Get Rich or Die Trying*
*Like Fiddy (50 cent) says, "Get rich or die trying". 50 Cent is rich, he
made it (although he did get shot 9 times). Face your fears and don't take
the easy way out by giving up.*
*19- Let The Haters Hate*
*There will always be haters. There will always be plenty of naysayers and
people who try to tear you down. Don't pay attention to them and don't take
what they say to heart. Let the haters hate and you keep believing in
yourself.*
*20- You Deserve To Be Happy*
*Don't ever let anybody tell you otherwise. You deserve to be happy and you
deserve to have success. Keep that mindset and never give up until you reach
your destination!*
*21- Inspire Others*
*Be an inspiration to others by refusing to give up. Who knows what someone
else can achieve because you never gave up and in turn inspired them not to
give up.*
*22- You Are So Close*
*Often when you feel like you want to give up and you are about to give up
you are so close to making a huge break-thru. Seth Godin has written an
awesome book about is called "The Dip" – a riveting read that teaches that
at any given time you are always just a heartbeat away from success.*
*Finally 7 Words that make a Leader out of the Speaker and the Listener **"I
Will Not Give Up On You" :-)*
