Hi guys , some people may think that this question its kinda stupid but i really believe that knowing when to give up its really hard, maybe you are strugling so you want to give up but you actually should just put more effort in or maybe your idea isnt worth and you are working for nothing.
do you guys do something special to decide if you give up or not?
 

Watch this and decide if it's worth keep working or give up.

No man, you just keep going. Quitting is addictive and once you quit once, you will surely quit twice, thrice and you become addicted to quitting. Quitters never win. JUST. KEEP. GOING.
 
Hey, I personally look at giving up as diverting your efforts in another direction.
If your current situation isn't working out maybe you should pause, take a step back, consult a friend, a colleague, someone who knows his shit and has been where you are now.
Maybe try to find a balance where you keep what you are doing right now running (let's say a website or a youtube channel) on minimal resources and investment, save it for later use where you are more knowledgeable about it.
Triple check if by any chance you missed some crucial part, a whole business might stall because of one bad component.

In the end if you are completely certain that it can't work, try to look at it from the bright side, you learned something and will come back stronger with your next project. Also, try not to fall for the so called 'sunken costs fallacy'.

That's just my 20 cents, hope it helps.
 
Sell everything you have
get a job, educate yourself (don't get stuck washing dishes run)
start your business
If it works keep hustling & invest your money If it doesn't (only by a major force like your domain being banned by law like cryptos in some countries, or a change in the policy of the compagnie you are basing your income upon)
in this case repeat !

Never give up. As Bruce Lee said, "Defeat is a state of mind; no one is ever defeated until defeat has been accepted as a reality."

Ok, If you have a Goal but you can't accomplish it even after so many efforts.
You may feel like giving up, others may say don't give up but all I can say is change your plan your method if it didn't worked but never lose the hope to complete that goal.

You can give up for few weeks then back to work with a fresh mindset
 
Sometime we have to give up, Its not like Never give up. There is a point when you have put all your efforts in something but you failed and want to give up, according to me at that point you have to rethink everything again and give it a try again with all efforts if it failed and you know it not worth the time, you better move on to something else.

Never give up - Please invent a time machine and never give up.

This is a good piece of advice.

When I used to spend 7 days a week glued to my laptops btting, I used to take a month break after a couple of the big horse race meetings and also after the world cup etc just to get some sanity and a holiday.

If you're struggling with IM etc, take time out and do some reading too and come back refreshed.

Surely? Why are you so sure about that? It has been proved that we can travel into the future. There's no proof that we can travel to the past though. Until December 17, 1903, most people were saying that flying is impossible and look how that turned out to be a huge misconception.
 
Yes I believe there are times when you actually have to bite the bullet and give up I know it sounds harsh but it's true sometimes things just doesn't work the way you had planned and you have to give up and try something different. I say after you have tried something for at least 2 years and it doesn't work then it's time to give up.

yeah 0.02 seconds in the future! damn.

it was also clearly stated that if it was any serious time then human body wouldnt endure it.

so whats the point of time traveling if you will die?
 
In every venture, you need to have a ceiling. That is why you need a plan, so it will let stay on course and not veered off by some tides. And in the plan, you need to know that if this goes into this Nth degree, you have to stop and think of a way to sway it or start again. Do this first before starting it out.

It's not about you giving up, it's a matter of how many times you get back up.

Basically right now you probably don't know when to give up. My advice for you is to take a piece of clean paper, divide it into two with a marker or pen, then do the brainstorming. On the left side, write YES and on the right side NO. Then at the top, write your question.

Ex: "Should I continue doing this?"

Spend as much as time you needed to think through everything, until your brain bleed out. On the YES side, write all the benefits, pros, advantages. Then on the NO side, write all the losses, cons, disadvantage.

Once you're done listing everything, now weight it in. I'm pretty sure by now you'll get a clearer picture on what you should do.

Hope this helps!

Maybe in 1000 years from now we will find a way to travel at the speed of light without dying.
