You only lose when you stop trying. When you feel like you have reached the road, take a moment to look around you. Have you achieved your biggest dreams? Are you where you always wanted to be? Have you made it?
If the answer to any or all of these questions is ‘No,’ that's not the end. The end is always good. If it's not happy, blissful, and everything you wanted, then it's not the end. You have a long way to go.
Even when it feels like there is no more use trying and there is nothing more you can do, you cannot stop there. You never alight from the plane before you reach where you were going. You would only come crashing down, and if you survive, things will never be the same afterward.
That's why you can't just alight now. The plane is still going. It's flying in turbulent weather, but the journey continues. There's much waiting ahead. Your many dreams, goals, all the places you've wanted to see, and the foods you've wanted to eat are all waiting for you. You can't give up now.
Take a short break if necessary. Cry your pain away in the bathtub. Play all the sad songs in your playlist and download more. You need to wash away all the hurt trying to pull you down.
After you have had a pretty good breakdown, get back up because you have to make it. That has been the point all along, right? Gather all your strength because your seat in the hall of greatness is already Reserved, and the spotlight is waiting to shine on you.
