When you're ready to quit, you're closer than you think. There's an old Chinese saying that I think is really true. It goes like this:

"The Temptation to Quit Will Be Greatest Just Before You Are About To Succeed"

~~ Bob Parsons

Wow, do you get frustrated because you've been trying to be successful at something and just don't seem to be able to get the goal you set?  Do you think about quitting?  Do you think you should just hand it up?

That's the feeling our quote is all about. There is a book by Sharon Lechter and an old cartoon about being 3 feet from gold. A prospector is digging for gold and gets frustrated and drops his pick and just 3 feet from where he stops is a vein of Gold Nuggets like you wouldn't believe. The moral of the cartoon and the book is what this quote talks about.

We will be just about to break loose and succeed, but we will be tempted to just quit. It will be greater the closer we are to succeeding. 

What we're trying to say is, DON'T QUIT! The more you feel it the closer you are to achieving your goals.

Ignore the temptation! Just Keep Going! Keep Digging!

Go Out Today and Kick Temptation in the Teeth! Never Quit!
