Don't give up

Sometimes we try our best and things just won't work out the way we want them to. We look for alternatives but we get no progress. And what's more baffling is that other people may take the steps we've tried and failed, and they progress. I don't know the art or science behind it. So we feel we've had enough, and tried enough.
At that moment, you hear a voice inside of you saying, "Let it go. Give up." One of the worst feelings is when you don't know whether to hold on or to give up. My little piece of advice to you is to hold on a little longer. Hang in there and try atleast once more.

I've been let down by the people I thought would never disappoint me. They have their reasons of course, some just don't care. I had a choice to shut it off(inspired by the vampire diaries..lol), or to leave my heart open. They'd both work for me but I chose the latter. I chose to have a little hope that maybe one day, everything will be fine. And, I know..slowly by slowly..things will work out.
So there you are, planning to give up huh!?!? Think about the people who'd almost lost it, people who the world thought they'll never make it, but managed to beat the odds and make it. But what if they gave up? Do you think they'd make it?

Cristiano Ronaldo, the current FIFA world player of the year, first won the prestigious award 5 years ago. His biggest competitor, Lionel Messi won it for the next 4 consecutive years. No one even thought he'd relapse because the boy was so on fire.
As he was getting the praises & all that, Ronaldo worked harder keeping on getting better, better & better. Now tell me, if he gave up, Do you think he'd win it last year? No! He's now undoubtedly the best. Don't give up as well. You can also be the best in whatever you're doing.

Real Madrid, undoubtedly the most successful football club in the world, had last won the UEFA Champions League 12 years ago, in 2002. They didn't give up, they kept on buying top class players, and changing managers until this year, when they finally magically won the most prestigious club trophy in Europe.

Those of you who are followers of music history, you are very well aware of Ludwig van Beethoven. In his formative years, young Beethoven was incredibly awkward on the violin and was often so busy working on his own compositions that he neglected to practice. Despite his love of composing, his teachers felt he was "hopeless at it and would never succeed with the violin or in composing."
Well, Beethoven kept plugging along, however, and composed some of the best-loved symphonies of all time – and most notably, five of them while he was completely deaf.

If you've never tasted KFC chicken, you needa go there. Their chicken is the best. And if you don't know much about KFC, read on.. Harland David Sanders, perhaps better known as Colonel Sanders founded Kentucky Fried Chicken(KFC). But in the beginning, he had a hard time selling his chicken at first. In fact, his famous secret
chicken recipe was rejected 1,009 times(not sure who was there to count, lol). But yes, he was rejected before a restaurant accepted it.
What if he gave up? Do you think we'd have KFC or rather he'd have KFC?? I guess not.


Many people who've succeeded haven't gone there so easily. There are always obstacles. People always say this and do that to discourage you, all we have to do is pray to God, hold on, try again, work harder, have faith and hope for the best. But DON'T GIVE UP.
