It didn't make you noble to step away from something that wasn't working, even if you thought you were the reason for the malfunction. Especially then. It just made you a quitter.

About This Quote

This is a very true quote. It makes perfect sense to get rid of things that are not working. When we try to change things and make them work, we can get frustrated and give up. But the real problem is not changing something, it is changing yourself.

We can't fix what we can't see. Sometimes we need to find a way to practice in order to learn how to do something. To do something a second time with a different approach will help us in achieving the best results possible in the future.
