When is it time to quit?
When does it just make common sense to stop wasting your time on something you are not really good at?
This is a critical question, as most people give up way too early, BUT no one wants to waste time on something that is not getting tangible results.
One of my coaches gave me a great piece of advice around this recently. It came at a time where I wanted to quit, because something was just “too hard.” It wasn’t working for me. I wasn’t enjoying it, and after all, isn’t life meant to be enjoyed?
Check out this piece of wisdom that might shake you up a little bit – but in a good way.
If you use this week’s practice, it will make you more motivated to persist on the things you want to bring into your reality, and will also help you to let things go from a place of power.
I’d love to hear from you.

Remember, most people give up way too early. That is great news for those of us who persist.
Much love,
P.S. Not many ‘solopreneurs’ make it to a 6-figure income, let alone 7-figures, because they give up too early on the skills they need to develop to get good at what they do. It’s still not too late to join us for Awaken Your Impact where you will continue getting excellent at the skills you need most to succeed – presence, leadership skill, sales, marketing, and business strategy.

Hi Rachael Jayne
I think this is a GREAT peace of advice. A real eye-opener for me!
Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Nele! It has really helped me
I LOVE this advice, Rachael Jayne! When I don’t want to do something, I often do it, because I know my hesitation comes from fear and lack of confidence. I’m almost always glad I did it after the fact.
In Toastmasters I have experienced first-hand that the way to get better at something is to do it! Activities that once felt awkward and uncomfortable are now things I actually enjoy- like speaking in Table Topics.
Great video! Thanks for sharing!

So very true Chrysta. I learned that at Toastmasters too years ago.
Not what I wanted to hear. Haha… but exactly what I needed to hear. Thank you 😉 And very true… There is a gift in everything we encounter in life. Now to just push through to see the light on the other end.
Thank you!
I am very happy to see you Rachael Jayne the way you look and express yourself today. I remember you from the first days you started to go public and was wondering then if you were the right person for the message. I applaud your courage and perseverance and trust in yourself. It is true that we become masters by making the first step and then the next one and then practise some more. Now you are a true inspiration for many others still doubting!
great advise indeed ! great philosophy ! it will help for sure and help to help… big thanks again and again 🙂
Thank you Rachael that you remind me because I forget , how important is this. I remember many times in my life I quit something because I didn’t believe that I’m good enough I felt like a loser all the time. Someday I found the courage and stay and learned and insisted until I become really good at it. Over time I quit this job, because I saw that this isn’t what I really want. But I can remember I felt so good, this was my decision, my choice I felt like a winner first time in my life.
Hi Rachael Jayne,
This is really good advice. I was about to quit working in a shop because I found doing the tally at the end of the day too hard. I practiced though, and asked questions of friends who had shops. Working in a shop is not my career, I do it in order to be around British people, as it sells British food. I am glad I didn’t quit because my intuition was right, working there gives me soul food, and mastering the till feels empowering now.
This is great advice, I resonated with it and your phase at the end about everything is temporary is a phrase I use frequently to myself when I find things challenging and when coaching clients, it helps to put things in perspective and get you through challenging times.
