When is quitting a wise decision?
In our own life, we occasionally find ourselves in similar situations. Some people are dealing with personal issues, while others are dealing with business or career issues at times
Even after adversity and no hope, some people remain in relationships and businesses because of emotional attachment.
Concept of Sunk Cost Fallacy
A principle from economics helps explain why the phrase “never quit” is terrible advice. Sunk cost fallacy argues that after a person has invested time, money, and effort into something, he is more likely to remain with it. A person develops an emotional attachment to something.
They become unconcerned about the future difficulties and losses that they may face in the future. The individual focuses and remains concerned with the investment he has made in that particular thing.
There are now hundreds of motivational videos and blog entries available online. A lot of those videos appear to advocate not quitting as the ideal life practice. We are not implying that all of those people are stupid. But bear in mind that no advice in this world is definitive, and everything has two sides to it.
