Debut Albums and Various Journeys
“Winners never quit and quitters never win.” This sentence always sticks in my mind through every day of my life. When I embark on various journeys in my life, there must be a time at which I feel like giving up. It could happen anytime, either at the start of the journey or just before I am about to make that huge break-through that I have been putting so much effort in to achieve. However, I always keep in my mind that it is better to fall than to quit, because I am never a quitter.
Last year I had a test in physical education and I was required to do high jump. Never been good in sports, I worried that I would fail the test because the pole seemed so high that it is impossible for me to jump over it. Though, I believed in myself that I would beat my fear and jumped over the pole. Unexpectedly, I did the first jump well. Then the height was increased to 1.5 m. My fear got bigger, but to quit at that time would be a loss. Hence, I ran and jumped over it. My heart was beating very fast that time. Then I landed smoothly on the mattress and I felt very relieved. After the height was increased again to 1.75 m I slipped and failed the jump, but I am glad because I had tried my very best and I did not fail that test.
From that point forward, I choose to believe in myself and do my best in everything even though I may fail instead of quitting.

    Success doesn't come easily, but slowly, and as the result of many, many trials and years of perseverant efforts. It’s those who quit, like those who never try, that won’t make it through to success.…

    “Never give up, and be confident in what you do. There may be tough times, but the difficulties which gave you face will make you more determined to achieve your objectives and to win against all odds.” This was what women’s Brazilian soccer star Marta once advised. Never giving up may sound like a goal that is impossible to reach in reality. Although that may be true, in literature there are characters who exhibit it ideally. For instance, Joan Bauer’s short story “A Letter from the Fringe” introduces a figure who showcases these traits. On a somber day, Dana, the protagonist, a high school student at Bronley High was tormented by bullies alongside her friend Sally for being overweight. Although, it seemed as if her heart had been torn out and thrown to the side, she was capable of forcing the two tyrants to flee. Afterwards, she insisted that they had no right to…

    Were all taught at a young age that when you try and try your hardest, anything you desire might be achieved. This statement for the most part is true but in one quick decision all of your hard work can be easily thrown away. Pushed down, deep into the recesses of your conscience in the same area where regret, guilt, and shame reside; this can all happen in one swift (usually ill-advised) choice, the choice to give up—or quit. In Barbara Graham’s essay “Confessions of a Quit Addict” she describes her adventures in quitting; where it took her, and how it shaped her to be the person she came to be. Through personal experience I too know what it is like to be a quitter and not live up to expectations, and also how to learn from mistakes.…

    The decision I made that day was certainly not easy. Part of me wanted to give up and avoid the risk of disappointment and failure, but I chose to pursue my goals despite my fear of failure that stood in my way. I realized that failure is in essence a lack of success; therefore, quitting is the ultimate failure because it precludes any chance of success. From my new perspective, quitting to avoid failure would be absurd. I would gain absolutely nothing by not trying, so I decided to improve and try out again the next year.…

    “You can quit when you are finished.” My dad has been saying this my entire life. Everytime he said that I took it to heart because, it is a powerful saying if you really and truly follow it. I had followed that saying my whole life relatively easily, until my freshman year of wrestling. During that season I was tested in how much I really believed in what my dad had been saying.…

    I continue to make goals for myself and continue to achieve my goals. I will carry forward striving for the best. I use to just give up but I realize that doesn’t make me any better. Some of the things I think about when I just want to give up is,“You have the patience, the strength and the passion to meet your ambitions your goals and your dreams. All you need to do now, is try.”also “What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving your goals.” I had to really think about what it really meant but now I…
