Most of us associate quitting with negativity: with not having the tenacity to persevere, crumbling when the going gets tough, and, ultimately, failure. But this way of thinking can hold many of us back without us realizing.
When it's done proactively, intelligently, and as part of a long-term game plan, quitting can be an essential tool for pushing our career in the right direction, toward the success and achievements we strive for and know we are capable of.
