When you have that never give up attitude, success is always right around the corner. But people do give up and in more cases than not, it’s just before success is realised.
Every time I hear the phrase never give up, it reminds me of a story in Napoleon Hill ‘s “Think and Grow Rich”. It’s the tale of gold miners who dug and dug and dug with out finding any gold and gave up. It was found that where they gave up was 3 feed from a major vein of gold. If they would have had a never give up attitude, they would have realised their dream.
We’ve all had things that we’ve worked for that didn’t pan out the way we thought they would. Things would be going along great and then something happens that causes us to give up. It could be a life event, the fear of the unknown, or any number of other things. But we did give up.
So how can we develop and maintain that never give up attitude?
4 Ways to Develop a “Never Give Up” Attitude.
1. Analyse the situation. When you hit a road block that is preventing you from achieving your goals, take a step back and look at the situation. Analyse the problem to be able to find a solution. It could be that you may find that the road block is there to tell you you’re heading in the wrong direction and it’s time to change course. Don’t over think of over analyse things. Just look for the solution or a way to get back on course.
2.Reward Yourself. When you’ve reached a milestone in your journey, take the time to reward yourself. Give yourself a pat on the back for a job well done. You could treat yourself to a night out, a special dinner etc. But remember to get back on task and continue on your course.
3. Have confidence. Keep and maintain your confidence that you will reach your goals. Do activities that fuel inspiration and build confidence. Do things you’re good at and enjoy.
4. Set Small attainable goals. You may have a goal that seems very large and almost unattainable. Break it down into smaller steps and smaller goals. When setting goals, keep them specific, measurable, achievable, realistic and time-targeted, (S.M.A.R.T ) goals.
