Why you shouldn't Give Up?

From time to time you may have heard of the phrase, "I give up!"

I have a question for you: How often has a homework assignment, college, your friends, your relationship, stress, sports, your parents, etc made you just want to give up on SOMETHING in your life?

I'm sure everyone who reads this blog will agree to an extent.

I remember in high school when I played basketball I was the one guy that ALWAYS tried to out hustle people on the court during drills, anything that would make me stand out. I did this because I didn't have that great of skills to be a starter on the basketball team. I will never forget one day at practice my coach stopped everyone at our drill and yelled at me while looking me straight in the face and said, "Are you kidding me? Did you come to practice not wanting to even play today? Your giving almost no effort today! Your the last person I would ever expect to just slack off during practice"

Of course, that made me feel pretty bad because it was embarrassing and I plain out got called out. 

Have you ever been called out in front of everyone? Ever felt like giving up?

  I have had ups and downs , and just like everyone else we all have problems or difficult times that we go through. Sometimes something bad happens to you and it puts a lot of things in perspective again.

I labeled this blog, Why you shouldn't give up? ...and this is not the typical oh you only live once or you shouldn't take your life for granted, it is about recognizing that it is OKAY TO FAIL, and that to let you know that everything will be OKAY.

Read this quote once, I'm not saying you have to put your hand over your heart, but just THINK for a minute what makes your heart pound.

There are a MILLION different reasons why you live your life, or what you look forward to. Thats not what I am talking about, I am talking about what makes you smile, what gets you going in the morning, what makes you tick, what makes you NOT WANT TO GIVE UP.

The bottom line is we all have fears, some may show them more than others. We all have a heart, and are blessed right now to live our lives the way we would like.

I could write for days on what obstacles in our lives makes us lose track of our goals, and our happiness but that just isisnt the PURPOSE of this blog.

My goal for this article is to get you to read and understand that you're not ALONE.

My friend from used to say, "DON'T TELL ME HOW ROCKY THE SEA IS, JUST BRING THE DAMN SHIP IN"

Sometimes we can't do everything by ourselves, sometimes we need someone else.

I just want to say that someone believes in  YOU.

Don't lose track of what makes you HAPPY.
Believe in YOU.
Why should you smile? Because you CAN.
Guess what tomorrow is? A new DAY.

Share the LOVE, share your HAPPINESS, do what you want to do with your life, climb any mountain you would like.

All I want to say now is,

NEVER
NEVER
NEVER
GIVE UP

specially on yourself
