You should never give up. It’s easy to just call it quits, y’know? And perhaps there are times when you need to say, “I got nuthin’. I don’t need to continue this track. I need to protect myself.”

Granted. That’s not what I’m talking about. In one sense, there are times when it’s absolutely appropriate to back away. Rather, I’m talking about throwing in the proverbial towel just because things are horrendously tough.
