Learn to give up wisely

Never give up has been accepted by many people as a positive life attitude. Admittly persistence¹ often plays an important role in one success. However,in many cases to give up might be wiser than to persist blindly. The following reasons can support this argument.

Firstly,sometimes our goal may be unrealistic. If we insist on it blindly, it will finally bring us nothing but failure. At this time,what we should do is give up the orignal goal and reset² a more pratical one.

Secondly,not all persistence can bring deserving results. For a very simple example if we keep waiting in line for hours, only to have a luncheon³ restaurant may be it is unwise.

Finally, to give up wisely does not mean admitting failure. Instead,it does mean a new hope of success.

Considering the above mentioned, we can come to the conclusion that to give up wisely is a kind of more mature life attitude. Though giving up sometimes is painful and costly,in the long run what we gain will definitely far out weight what we lose.
