About This Quote

When quitting is done correctly, it isn't giving up - it's making room for something better. When someone quits doing something, there is a change of perspective. For example, when a person quits smoking, they no longer have the urge to smoke. When a person quits dating someone new, they no longer feel the need to date them.

In both cases, the person is giving up on something that was no longer serving them. However, when a person quits doing something that is no longer serving them, they are making room for something better.
