So many ways to talk about this, i chose the simplest - Giving up is easy for most because they have done it so many times before. It takes a few moments to decide, the few times you avoid committing and all of a sudden letting go of the pressure feels so good. Not until it haunts you, and you need to maintain it. 'Giving up' is just diverting the commitment from fighting for the success of the dream or goal, to fighting to stick to the decision to let go and not fall apart.
