That's right. Sometimes, you should just give up.
This may not be the type of advice you'd expect to find in a book about positive thinking. However, there is a specific time when you should surrender- and that is when you hate doing what you're doing.
"Like what you do.
If you don't like it, do something else."
- Paul Harvey
Too many people end up settling for the life they think they ought to have, the life others have told them to expect, or the life they believe they're stuck with.
You must realize that there is room on this planet for everyone, and if you're feeling trapped in a job you despise or a living space you can't stand, you need to make a change- not down the road, when you have time, or as soon as you get whatever it is you've been waiting for; but right now. That elusive "someday" is always going to be in the future, and you can't catch up to the future. Now is the only time you have.
This doesn't mean you should drop everything and throw caution to the wind- at least, not in most cases. If you're like most people, you have responsibilities that must be taken care of. However, there is always something you can do right now to cast out your net and catch "someday," and start pulling it toward you.
Do you hate your job, but lack the experience to get a different one? Start taking night classes or sign up for an online course. There are hundreds of accredited universities offering distance learning classes over the internet. Is your house or apartment located in a neighborhood that started out great, but is becoming worse every day- and you haven't found the time or the money to move?
Take a close look at your budget and see if there's anything you can do without for a few months, or ask your landlord or bank if they have any other properties you could look into.
Waiting fuels the fires of apathy. Doing something about your situation, no matter how small or insignificant it may seem, can start a chain reaction of enthusiasm that will energize you to reach your goals. You deserve to get what you want out of life while you're still here to enjoy it.
Don't put it off another day, because your "someday" is right now!
