:: quitting ::

I have spoken with many adults who have said,
"I used to take music lessons when I was a child.
I regret the fact that I quit too soon.
I wish I knew how to play the piano today."

I have never talked with an adult who said,
"I took music lessons when I was a child.
I regret the fact that I didn't quit sooner!"

Of course, it's not about music lessons...
it's about knowing when to stay with something and knowing when to quit.
How many books were never written because someone quit too soon?
How many relationships died prematurely and
how many dreams never came to fruition because someone gave them up?

Maybe it's not yet quitting time.
