Rethinking the definition of 'quitting'


Listen Later

Quitting has been defined as a bad thing. That if we quit, we are less. All because we didn't follow through to the end. But what if we redefine how we look at quitting?


What if you considered quitting something to be a conscious decision you made to move towards wellness in your life?


When I was in university (in my 20's) I floated around studying psychology, criminology, and sociology. I quit a lot of different things during that time. Had I stuck it out and finished criminology (something I didn't enjoy) then my life trajectory would be totally different. I wouldn't have gotten into social work (which is where my life is now) all because of a fear of quitting. Quitting is not bad, it's something where there is A LOT to learn from.  Embrace quitting as a conscious choice towards wellness.

🌟Make a list of all the things you want to quit & why.

🌟Write about all the things you've quit in the past & reflect on how they have directed you towards wellness in your life.
