I was reading a quote today which kind of got me thinking for everyone who has some kind of aspiration to achieve. Especially in the new years where a lot of people start to make their new year\u2019s resolutions. The quote was \u201cAn author is an amateur who didn\u2019t quit.\u201d I liked that saying a lot as many times we tend to compare ourselves to people who have already made it where we all assume it\u2019s impossible to achieve.<\/p>\n
Realistically, even from my own experiences many times the lucky break or success simply came from just being persistent and not giving up. I suppose in many ways that is why you see so many people who turn their hobbies and passions into a successful business of sorts. Basically they just enjoy it so much that they keep doing it where eventually some kind of great opportunity falls on them.<\/p>\n
I guess there is often the fine line between never giving up versus something that is clearly not working out as well which can be confusing. A venture capitalist of sort would probably tell you to drop something super-fast if it isn\u2019t making money whereas another person who has gone through the trials and tribulations may tell you to keep going. But I suppose everyone is essentially the same in many ways except the level of consistency and determination is often the key difference.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
