On: Why you can’t quit
You can’t quit, Dear One.
- Not because you shouldn’t.
- Not because you couldn’t
- Not because it’s a sign of weakness, failure or an admittance of guilt or incompetence if you do
You can’t quit because whatever it is you are trying to get away from by quitting is not going to go away until you deal with it, confront it, face it, handle it, learn from it, address it head on. It will keep coming back, in one form or another, again and again and again, until you do.
When it comes down to it, quitting really is nothing more than a delay tactic.
It is a defeatist act rooted in frustration, desperation and a belief in powerlessness, and it resolves nothing
But making a conscious decision to walk away, choosing to make a different choice, an empowered choice, now that is an entirely different story altogether.
