Just keeping it anti-hypocritical.
My years of climbing experience have endowed me with the ability to simplifiy and oftentimes overcome many of my life's challenges. I'm sure everyone who reads this has at least once, found some correlation between the emotional crusades of climbing and our real life endeavors. So here I go,(again.)
Some problems just aren't for you. Why waste your time fighting for something that might just spit you off endlessly; when around the other side, there's another challenge that may evolve to be much more intrinsically fulfilling? Sometimes, you have to let go and fall into that difficult conclusion. However, never forget the investments you've made as well as the gains you've seen throughout your attempts.
When you've put your heart into something, letting go seems so incredibly difficult. Is it only after you've seen or perhaps attempted that "amazing" thing around the corner, that accepting failure becomes straightforward? Or, do you wither away in a seemingly incessant pursuit of the unattainable? By no means am I saying just give up and take the easy way. Rather, it seems you come to understand that somehow by letting go you are actually stronger, and therefore much more prepared for that "amazing" thing around the corner.
Basically, one must learn to recognize when it's time to move on, and hopefully discover the bliss that awaits on the other side.
Just keep a smile on your face, and know when to fold 'em.
See ya,
-SG
