HOW DO YOU KNOW WHEN TO NOT QUIT?

They enunciate “You never know how close you are toward your victory ✌️ but what if you're still far?”

What if you want to keep going but it suddenly changes- You lose interest

What happens if no one reminds you to push through? Alone with my shadow will I sit?

I like to try new things until I Learn what is for me…

If No one tells you what 😦 you are good at then, How will you know?

Do we need encouragement or should we focus on encouraging ourselves?

Encouragement does mean a lot when coming from someone else and also it means more when you encourage yourself❗

    So true. Great piece! Good stuff and good on you!

  • Berry Driven2 years ago

    So true. The ultimate encourager is that which is within you.

  • How very..., encouraging? (Of course it is. It's hard to imagine a better encourager than you, HandsomelouiiThePoet!)

  • Yes encouragement is very crucial! Loved your poem!

  • Cathy holmes2 years ago

    This is absolutely truth. Well said.

    Great job Lonzo, with relevant ideas! I like to think it’s the joy of the journey rather than the end game! & self love and encouragement are very important as well. ☺️

    I agree. I am terrible for needing validation from others and I need to focus a little more on my own self motivation! Nicely written!

  • Laura Lann2 years ago

    I think you need a good dose of both! You need faith in your own abilities and then the strength of others affirming it and pushing you forward. Personally, I've got a stubborn streak that helps me along.

    Those are very beautiful and thought-provoking words. I agree, I push myself and encourage myself to the limits, and because I have the can-do spirit and the need to save the world, I often keep pushing to my detriment. Such a precious question indeed. I think it's about realizing when one has done all you can; for me, that is when I have gone as far as I can. At that point, it's up to the universe. But I won't quit until I have done all that I can. Nice work!
