Precious time...

It always amazes me when people put up with things and others for an indefinite period of time. If something makes me struggle too much I give up on it. I don’t have the inclination or energy to fight a losing battle. Patience is also not one of my virtues and I just let something go when others will persist beyond endurance to make something work.
I know all too well that it is not something to be proud of but really if you think of it why waste precious time in a situation that is not going to work or have the end result you hope for. There are some circumstances that warrant us to keep going and keep trying. For instance this place I find myself in. I am not going to give up making a new life for myself.
However in other positions that I feel is worthless of my attention and persistence I won’t waste my time. If something is not up to the standard I expect or someone is making my life a misery I speak up about it. And then I keep my distance and try at all costs to avoid them.
We can’t waste precious time in this life on things we don’t think is going to result in success. Too many things can pass us by when all our concentration is captured with something that is a complete waste of time. Something else that will be worth the time and effort might be around the corner while you are too busy with something or someone that is not worth the effort and you will regret not looking around to see where that might be.
Do you persist where you know it is not going to work?

everyone have the right to ask or say their opinion....

that's what blogs is all about isn't it....
hey Fairy, are u talking about peeps or things?
if about peeps i part with them pretty fast if only sumth goes wrong, but can change my mind pretty fast as well and come back or receive back ....many times.
if about things&goals i'm very persistent...sumetimes even to extent of recklessness....but u know, step by step - it works for me!
Not everyone is in the same head space as you, compassion for all and if it takes them longer to get there then so be it, you should never slam the door in anyones face no matter how frustrating they may be frustrated
Time...

interesting notion ...

It's the fourth dimention of space ... ermm .. yeah, believe it or not, it doesn't flow in a straight line...

a second is not always the same amount of time... it can be made shorter or longer... u know what that means? physicas says that time travel is indeed possible!!!!!!! -this has been proven beyind any reasonable doubt!

wave hi fairie..i used to try too hard to change something about someone i would be emotionally involved with untill i matured and realized it is a waste of time.

so many women settle for less than decent treatment and then they try and change the guy..it usually does not work.
laugh
Swissblueeyes, Nobody should settle for anything less than they deserve. I am glad you realize your worth and don't fall into that trap.
