"Effort only fully releases its reward after a person refuses to quit".
Even Napoleon Hill says it. At some point in your life someone probably encouraged you to give it your best shot. They may have even come out and told you "Don't Quit". And you've probably heard a poem, listened to a song, or had your mom tell you that success comes to those who don't quit. And it's true.
For some reason, we think that following our dreams should be easy. It "should" be fun, and it "should" come to us on time. But the reality is, as we move toward our dreams, as we fulfill our purpose and live our passion, there will be times when we question whether or not it is worth it.
It's almost like a test to make sure that we want it bad enough. And when you say that you do, when you push through the moments that are difficult and when you don't quit, the reward is so much sweeter.

Action: The next time you are thinking of throwing in the towel because things aren't unfolding according to your plan, remember what your mom always told you...winners never quit!
