You Can’t Lose If You Don’t Quit

Today’s newsletter is not for everyone.

It’s for those who are currently working, hoping, and/or waiting on something.

A couple of years ago, I invested in a particular stock

Things were going great until they weren’t.

I was in full-on panic because what else do you do when you see a 30% drop in value?

Not 3, 30%! 😭

‘My portfolio is never going to recover from this,’ I thought quietly one evening.

Well, it recovered, and that same stock eventually doubled in value.

I remember asking myself, what if I sold the stock before it turned around?

This experience taught me a valuable lesson: You can’t lose if you don’t quit. Play the long game!

Many of us might find ourselves in situations today where it would be easier to quit and walk away.

That temptation to throw in the towel is valid and more common than you think.

However, there is a level of determination that success requires.

You have to remind yourself that as long as you don’t quit, there is a way out.

As long as you don't stop, you have a chance.

One of the recurring compliments I get at work is that I am an optimist. Always seeing the best and hoping for the best.

I get shocked every time someone says this.

How else are we supposed to go through life?🤷🏾

What is the benefit of going through life thinking that it won't work out?

So here's my message to you this week: Please don’t quit. Play the long game.

It might feel good to quit now, but you'll be left with the pain of regret.

A day will come when you'll look back and be grateful you didn't quit.

There is hope for you as long as you stay the course.

Rooting for you always!
