I think sometimes if progress can’t be seen and you don’t think you are achieving anything getting those feel good endorphins it can be easy to give up and not let yourself finish things, you have to have the power to push through and get to the end result and see it was worth it.
I suppose that there are a lot of people with diagnosed and undiagnosed illnesses like ADHD. This might impact on their ability to concentrate and become unfocused?!
I have adhd and I’m autistic I have found things that help and some days I have no focus and don’t get much done but i never give up, I may abandon a side project for years but I always return!
I think that people give up, because of a lot of reasons. Some may be serious and others may not. I guess it just all depends on the situation they are in at that moment. I do think they give up easily because they may not have anyone to turn to or ask for advice or depend on anyone that actually cares enough to acknowledge them. Another one is having no one that doesn’t give a dame at all and cares not what, where, how and why they are doing with/for themselves.
Some people may just be slow brain and not get it at all or they don’t care themselves about how they are doing. Those would be the ones that have given up and just don’t care about what happens to them and not care what others think and have to say about them.
There are those who have actually lost everything or something very dear to them that it’s driven them to not care of anything in the world and those around them, so they feel they have nothing to lose therefore they give up way sooner than later. They just can’t stand and deal with the pressure having to deal with whatever they are giving up on to soon?
Some people may have no choice at all or control over the situation in why they must give up so soon. There are so many other answers, ideas and thoughts on that question. At the end of it all this is a bit of what I think of the question. I have more thoughts, but this is good and interesting enough for your eyes I say.
Sometimes people give up because of depression they lose all hope
Some may feel so much depressed with everything. Thank you for your comment, Jacqueline.
