A point may come in the course of your llife's journey that the only options staring at your face will be all negativities - like "no", "give up", etc. In that point, it may seem like every step you take is being halted by challenges, but believe me, your mark could be just a few steps away, so you need to put in just one more step and you will be surprised at the difference that one more step will make.

The "giving-up" point; more often than not; is just at the point of breakthrough. Some people do not realize this and they tend to give up few moments before their breakthrough, just because of some temporary challenges. Remember this, morning will always be preceded by night. If you give up during the night, then how do you expect to see the morning?

A story was told of a young adventurer that went in a quest to mine precious stones. He had a detailed direction and map of the site and assembled his digging tools for the journey. At last, he was in his targeted location.

However, he would still need to dig his way through thick earth crust to get to the stones. He dug for hours without the stones being in view. At a point, he started to question the validity of the map that bought him to the site. He dug throughout the night without hitting anything that looks like precious stones.

When it was morning, he was already cleaning his digger to pack his bag in disappointment when the decided to just give his final digging... behold, that was the breakthrough he required, his stones were right there staring him in the face. If he had not dug one more time, he would have lost out and his efforts would obviously have been futile.

This same "precious stone scenario" has been experienced by others in other aspects of their lives. Whenever you are faced with a challenge that is suggesting quitting, always remember that you could be just at the foot of your breakthrough, this will provide you with the required internal energy to take another step. Remember this, for your to convert your challenges to success, you must rule off the mentality of quitting.
