I don't understand the mentality of giving up. The whole throw in the towel thing doesn't really work for me. It may be because I have to much pride. That must be it. Every time giving up or going easy crosses my path I kick out the way like a putter would a soccer ball. When you give up you get nothing in return. So that all that you did put in was a waste of time. I think every time I give up on something I bring myself down; subconsciously. Something in my mind sticks that I didn't finish a task or marked myself as handicap to the task. I don't see why you want to give up, or what feels good about it. I can't stand the word GIVE UP honestly. My fingers cramp every time I type it, except when it's in the sentence GOODBYE GIVING UP!
I think it is awesome that you don't let yourself give up. I have a tendancy to have no problem with throwing in the towel. It's pretty silly. Sometimes my brain just says 'this is easy, don't do it and forget about it' and then I do. I know it's not good for motivations sake because I notice that giving up a couple times makes it easy to give up later on, which can be bad if it's something important.
