When you are faced with the scenario when giving up ceases to be an option, you will be surprised the unimaginable strength your body has been hiding from you. There is no doubt that challenges do come but one thing you should realize is that most of these challenges are not unique to only you. There are many others that are currently facing a more fierce and intense challenge than you but are still holding up, so why not you?

It only becomes over when you have agreed with your challenges that it is over. Most times, the purpose of these challenges is not to break or crack you but to refine you, make you tougher and bring out the beauty in you. If you have ever observed the purification process of gold in the furnace, you will understand that some tough situations are for your beautification.
To avoid challenges is to avoid the process to your beautification, just like the the raw gold that avoids the furnace has avoided the opportunity to shine. However, in all these, what determines your survival in the face of challenges is not the intensity of the challenge but the level of your strength.
When materials are passed through fire, some may be consumed and some may be purified (like gold is purified and chaffs are consumed) but what determines that is the nature the material is made off. Just to let you know; you have enough strength within you to put up with your challenges.
To increase your strength at the face of challenges; you need to focus your attention on the bright and good side of the challenge. Secondly, having the knowledge of a better tomorrow and the fact that the challenges will help you achieve that will make your strength to increase.
Each time you feel like giving life a quit, just remember that winning and quitting are two mutually exclusive event. That is; the appearance of the former (winning) strongly negates the appearance of the later (losing). Going through a heavily challenging situation may indicate that you are on the right track and may only prove that there is a bigger goal in view.

The line that separates strength from weakness is only motivation. With the right will and motivation, you will be surprised the height of the mountain you can surmount, the width of the ocean you can swim and the length of the journey you can walk.
