The Magic of Giving up

A presentation at Shine Speaker Showcase by Pachi Parra "Codes"

In my life, I’ve given up on a variety of things: jobs, college, business, relationships, and each time, I felt like a failure. Eventually though, I realized that quitting certain things freed me to focus on more meaningful things. Society often tells us that quitting equals failure. We then place a lot of pressure on ourselves to finish things we wish we hadn’t started in the first place - a career, a project, even relationships. I want to show you that it’s not only okay to give up, it also has some great advantages Are you overwhelmed with all the things on your plate? Maybe you need a break, but you’re not sure how to make that happen? Or maybe you know, deep down, that something in your life is not working for you, but you’re afraid of quitting. This talk will help you see “giving up” in a whole new way - and, hopefully, encourage you to start quitting more to focus on the things that matter.
