I have been blessed with a fair bit of stick-at-em (pure stubbornness), to the point of hanging on a little too long. But I still face with the temptation to give up. I do give up on some things sometimes. With creativity and doing something you love, the temptation to give up can become more than a simple frustration. It has a tendency to eat away at your resolve and dissolve your stick-at-em. When you put in the time and give the energy but the results are still slim … and the journey lasts much longer than you anticipated ... you may face a very real desire to toss it…
