Host: Is it ever all right to quit?

Gary Ryan Blair: So is it ever all right to quit, to walk away, to say no marks, I give up? Well, the answer is yeah. There comes a point of time when say an 0:11 may be the best thing to do, but under certain circumstances and we need to practice that. You shouldn t quit because it's difficult; you shouldn t quit just because it was inconvenient or you got embarrassed. That's just part of the process. Every single resolution, like any single goal, needs to be exposed to the elements just the same way that a tree is going to be exposed to rain, sleet, wind and snow and everything like that.

You need to expose your resolution to challenge, adversity, difficulty. That s just part of the process. You can t get away from that. However, circumstances do change, that there are health issues, there re relationship issues. People get sick; circumstances change and everyone s circumstances from time, to time changes and they have to say, you know what, right now, I need to walk away from this. This is not appropriate. It's not timely; I need to put my priorities in another place. But, I want to make sure, yes there is a time instead of circumstances when walking away and saying, 1:15, was probably the best thing, but again not because it got difficult just because circumstances changed.
