Do you give up easily?

I just wonder would you give up easily on every difficult situation? I would say honestly, I am not a good fighter. Sometimes, I just can hold up my will, and insist it until the end. I might give up in the middle of the road. That is why I didn't accomplish anything great in my life yet so far. What about you? Do you give up easily on a difficult situation? I think if people want to do something, and want to accomplish something, do not give it up. We all might encounter variety of obstacles on the road. It really depends on how you gonna move them away.

I can do this, but I'm also very resilient, and never give up completely. I've given up on situations in the past that make my heart hurt bad now. But I've learned from this, and have become very determined to make the best of things now. Youc an regret things for the rest of your life; but as long as there's life there's hope. I want to make the best of things while there's still time.

It depends. With my husband, I'm headfast and strong and want it my way, or he can hit the highway (not really, but that's the attitude I tend to take), with my kids who are at home, I tend to be the same way...I have 3 kids who have moved out and I am much more mellow with them. And two of those 3 kids have kids themselves...those 2 I'm just a big marshmellow with, I don't know why, it's just me...

NOPE!.. I don't give up easily without a fight.. Yes we all encounter a lot of obstacles in life and if you're not going to face them then how long are you gonna let that obstacle control your life. It's easy to sit back and take notice, but what is difficult is getting up and take action!... FIGHT! FIGHT! FIGHT!.. NO RETREAT.. NO SURRENDER.. that should be your motto..

i think i am similar to you... i give up pretty easily as well on some occasions... but on other occasions, i can be really tough and fight til the end... again, it depends on the situations and my mood... most of the time i will give up though and that's why i haven't achieved anything great in my life yet until now... but i already promise myself that i will change to become a stronger person who won't give up easily so that i can achieve something great in my life... take care and have a nice day...

I am not one who gives up easily at all. I put every effort into the cause i believe in. Giving up for me is not trying. Not trying is failing. If i fail, I at least want to say that I tried. I am not a quitter and I hope i never am.

I often give up and i feel bad about that. When i want to do something difficult, I always think it is hard so i can not do it very well, and i always imagine different situations what i may face when i do it. I am often getting cold feet before doing things.After long time of thinking, i usually choose to give up. i hate i am a quitter.

It depends on what subject I am persuaded to give up on. I do not get a lot of useful advices or encouragement from my family, they only encourage me because of their personal interest, perhaps nobility is all their care about. I am usually motivating on my own and I have accomplished a lot of stuff. I have the most medals, honors, achievements, talents among my family, still they couldn't appreciate me like normal parents would. Not even a party will be celebrated aside from my birthday. What I can remember about giving up is when i shifted from Computer Science course to Hotel and Restaurant Management. I didn't want to pursue Comsci because the math was a bit harder than I thought, its almost close to what engineers studies. I excel in computer subjects though. I took up HRM because I would want to graduate faster and give up the goal as a computer programmer, despite that CS wasn't really meant for that job but still its more advanced than my goal. I don't want to fight anymore in huuge battles of life, and if I can't do something, I'll let someone do it for me instead, as usual.

hello kingparker! i am a very determined person. I don't give up easily even when it's impossible that i would succeed. I don't know why but i just want to show to everyone that i did my best in trying to achieve something or solve something, whether i get to accomplish it or not. I always have this compulsion to not quit, even in my relationships and dealings with people. I only give up when its plain as the sun in the sky that i cannot do anything anymore to solve a problem or accomplish a goal. But as long as there's still a breath of hope for some changes, i would still pursue and give it my best. Also, it has been said, quitters never win and winners never quit.

No, i wouldn't give up, its i'll do my best and think positive. and the mind will focus on something and concentrate to that part. being positive is kinda have a good karma, i don't know if its true or not. but i rather no give up, there some ways to find. if you give up easily all have been lost.

I rarely give up. I need to know that I have done everiting posible. And when I know that I don't help or I don't do enithing else - I give up.

I don't give up easily when i can see there is a hope. But,if i can feel that i am fighting or pushing through for nothing,i won't never hesitate to give up. No gut's no glory as the saying goes. But i won't waste my time hoping for impossible when i can do a lot of things than waiting. Personally i am fighter,and i don't give up easily. But once i give it up,it's for good and i won't be looking back again for something/someone that i already had given up. It means,i already done my best,and there is nothing to regret for giving up. Have a good day always

I find myself giving up easily sometimes. I don't really want give up. But there are certain circumstances when all of my plans fail.

I used to, but I have gotten much better at this now, since I have tried to work on this part of myself, since I don't think giving up fast is a good quality. I am happy to say I think I made some progress!
