"Winners never quit and quitters never win."
There are only two options in life, either give up and accept it, or push, push, push until you overcome it. That’s really what strength training is about anyway. Every day is a mental challenge as much (or even more so) as it is a physical challenge.
Every failure will teach you a lesson that you need to learn if you will keep your eyes and ears open and be willing to be taught. Every adversity is usually a blessing in disguise. Without reverses and temporary defeat, you would never know the sort of metal of which you are made. – Napoleon Hill, The Law of Success.
some have misinterpreted it. So let me define what I think this quote does NOT mean:
It doesn't mean you should NOT quit a relationship that’s toxic.
It doesn't mean you should NOT quit a job that you hate.
It doesn't mean you should NOT quit a project you’re not passionate about.
It doesn't mean you should NOT quit an activity that you don’t enjoy.
In fact, sometimes quitting a relationship, job, project or other activity, when you don’t like the direction it’s going, in is exactly what you need to do so that you can refocus that energy on moving forward.
Which condition do you have to master before you can get successful?
Failure.
Napoleon Hill experienced poverty before becoming rich. Lance Armstrong had cancer before winning the Tour de France 7 times. Steve Jobs made Apple big 10 years after getting fired out of Apple.
Napoleon Hill spends a whole chapter in the Law of Success about failure and the 7 failures he experienced before becoming successful.
You would never know the sort of metal of which you are made. Winners know failure is temporary. Winners know increasing your failure rate increases your success rate. Winners know the only answer to failure is persistence.
