Why do we quit?

Why do we quit? Because we have surrounded ourselves with people who have.

When everyone in our surrounding is setting an example why should we quit then how will we get a reason to not to?

When nobody shows us a reason to carry it on. Then how will we get the strength to carry it on. The only way to keep going is by surrounding ourselves with people who did and not people who couldn’t pass a roadblock. And when we will have enough of the reasons to do what we do. We will carry on doing what we do.

After then we can create our own reasons, we can build the seed of inspiration inside us and water it consistently. But initially, we will need someone who will help us understand how can we keep going without having the energy to stand up.

As a child, we needed someone’s support to walk who could walk. We can’t learn to walk from a crippling. From someone who himself can’t walk. And after we are done learning how to walk from someone, we can run whatever way we like. We can choose our pace whatever way we love.

The thing is we surround ourselves with people who feed our negative instincts. If there is the slightest doubt inside of us that we can’t. People around us feed that instinct and give that doubt a reason to believe. And that’s all fine. We should be told that whatever we think isn’t going to come alive. So that we keep our head on our shoulders. But then we also need someone to made us believe that whatever we think is going to come alive.

Once we get that momentum then we can ourselves be that someone for us. But we need a little push to that momentum and all we have are the people who pull us back.

Today its much easier to surround ourselves with people who push us ahead and still, we only cling to people who pull us back. We should try to have both of them.
