"Find an excuse to win"

I had an attitude of quitting early or pausing on the first obstacle I faced. I used to think of it as "This is not my area of expertise" or "Let me wait for other person to confirm this" or "This is too hard, let me give myself some time" etc.

Unknowingly, I used to look out for excuses to no give my 100%.

Somewhere I read this quote, and that's where I realized the stark difference of mentality I had. From then on, it's really changed my life for good.
