At some point in life, we all struggle while deciding whether continue fighting for something or to forget it.
An article in success.com lists out a few points that will help you overcome this conflict.
* Start asking simple questions like is there a chance I can achieve this, Do I have, or can I find the required resource, does success rely on someone else. Once we’ve asked the obvious questions, dive deeper.
* Ask yourself do you badly want something, if the answer is no, then stop wasting your time on it.
* Let your emotions flow. Think about the decision hard. If you get a positive vibe then that is your green signal to continue, if not stop right there.
* Think if you are more oriented to the outcome or the process. Decide what is your focus on and work accordingly.
* Attitude is a rare example of something that’s always 100 percent within your control. Think if adjusting will affect your outcome.
* Calculate how you spend your time. Are you focused on the economy, politics or your competitors’ behaviour? Or have you given up clever Facebook diatribes in favour of what’s within your power, such as reading a brilliant business biography or polishing your resume.
* The important question is have you done the best?
We can fully control our work ethic, so decide what you want to accomplish, and then hustle to make it a reality.
If we still fail, we’ll know the cause was likely outside our control. You can then save the energy that might have gone into self-flagellation for the next hustle.
