I have encountered so many difficulties, hardships and and pains yet I refuse to give up. Well it's not because of am strong, neither is it because I derive joy in it but one thought keeps me going, making me believe that soon it will be alright.

What keeps me going is this.
I believe that every attempt I make that there is a greater chance of me breaking through, so for me to relax or loose hope means am reall missing this opportunity.
So even when weak, sick or tired I keep trying because I believe it only for a while

I will never give up until here because this is the beginning of my struggle. and this is also a great opportunity for me to succeed in working. and surrender is not a proper path but a misguided chasm
a lot of experience that I get here so I will not give up staying struggling even though big fish fish never prey me

Despite the hopelessness and harsh reality that life gives me, I don’t easily give up because of my own dreams and burning passion. It is also because of the people who continuously believes in me. Yes, these are my motivators and they keep me going. Life will always be hard. That’s a given fact. But it becomes bearable because of the people we love and love us as well that never gives up on us. They believe in us so we have all the rights to believe in ourselves that we can do this, we will get through this and we should never look down. Instead, we must face the world up high, tap our shoulders and say to ourselves, “We can do better than this! We will succeed and we shouldn’t stop doing our best.” Yes, there were times that we fail, we make mistakes, we gain regrets and we just wanted to shut the world off. But it’s okay to feel that because we are all humans.
And then we should rise up again, feeling recharged, stronger and eager to face life’s hardness and this goes on.

I don't give up because I already did once before and it was worse than drowning, so now, instead of sinking gasping for air, filling my lungs with emptiness I keep going forward or backwards, it doesn't matter, in the end the important thing is to keep moving and discover those little moments that make it all worthwhile.

The thought of letting people who sacrifice their happiness to get me where I am will not just leave me be. When you have people who believe in your life's dreams and invest their own life into it, then I see no greater motivation than this. It is my goal that they get the right return on their investments (not necessarily monetary).

My father always told me and my siblings that life was a competition. As a child, I wondered who I was competing with, but growing up now, I know.

I never give up, because I have to beat my previous self; the old, weak, version has to be overcome by the new, unknown but superior, version.

I don't give up, because I have to make my life's story a bestseller.

@moneyinfant has added your contest to the list Steemit Writing Contests: Issue #54. The list is updated on a daily basis and your contest will remain on the list until its expiration - there's nothing you need to do.

The list was created to save writers the excessive amount of time spent searching through the #contest tag for writing contests. Now they can just come to the list each day, see new contests and use their time doing what they love - writing.

If you'd like to help spread the word about the Steemit Writing Contest List I'd really appreciate a resteem, but it certainly isn't necessary. The project is simply meant to help writers save time and contest creators attract more contestants.

P.S. If you know of any contests I've missed I'd love to hear about them. Thanks!
