Not giving up even if you want to give up

Do you know the feeling- when you reach your limits, but you don’t want to give up. The reason might be in the goals or maybe because it’s your style. You’re just not the person that gives up. You feel tired from everything, but you know you’re moving forward. You feel so comfortable with yourself and your surroundings when you know that the line is straight, that you wanted it so much. You’re not even aware that you would choose something like that without reason. Something pushes you forward, even forward.

Why would you give up for some tiny holes in the system? Remember, you can change the world only by changing yourself. Your highest fears needed a consumption, your way to say no needed to express itself. Think about all your highest feelings that took you to this moment. If you cannot decide, think about what do you like the most.

All the biggest companies like Disney, Hilton, IBM, Microsoft are built during the hardest time of economic crises so you should not forget that the growth belongs to you. It’s your responsibility, your decision to be with your finest self and give its wings to the world. Point serves to something and it’s you to put it on the proper place. We randomly choose things even if we don’t know the reasons just because intuition tells so.

The next step to giving up is just following the Road which knows the best your place. Waiting for the green brenches to give fruit which doesn’t come can be annoying but if you discover the rules- the half of work is done.

Giving up is not fun as at the end we all want to see how changed we will be, will our desires come true, what we will enjoy the most. From what can we give up? From our weaknesses and our expectations as delusions doesn’t make the way, from our never-ending joy to go forward. We would give up from ourselves if we wouldn’t follow the rules of the game. Sometimes is really enough and the tiny “I can’t” immerges to the surface to the big “I can’t”. Like the adrenaline sports when we only wish to try. To realise that we really cannot do something underlines our desire to try as we don’t run away from the possibility. It’s not giving up even if we’re focused the most.

The support of our loved ones, of our family and friends is what gives us the reason. In the story of croatian adventurist Davora Rostuhara that went walking to the South Pole all alone is like that, admitting that he couldn’t do it without our help in all the forms. His girlfriend deserves the special gratitude. Even when he wanted to give up, he couldn’t.

Giving up is sometimes so easy and sometimes it takes a lot of courage. Rather than obstacles and difficulties, it’s the journey and learning. It’s listening to yourself and respond to your inner voice which gives you motivation. The moment which feels so fulfilling will be so rewarding.

Not giving up is the sign of victory, of the triumph over something. I didn’t give up learning French just because of that “triumph” feeling. Even though I started at the college, I felt that speak it so weekly. Arriving in France for two weeks with only opening up a new online course, I could speak it without any question. More than I though. Sometimes we’re not aware how much we’re able. Don’t think you don’t have time or possibility. As long as it’s in your heart. Don’t give up.
