No. After a certain point of constant failure you become too burned out to try anything anymore.

Each time you fail at something, try to work out what went wrong and take steps to get better at that. I know it's not easy. But nothing worthwhile comes easily.

I like the quote "The only way you can fail is if you quit"

Your advice is worthless. I'm nearly 50 years old, and here are the lessons I have learned:

· Being poor as a child hurts you for the rest of your life. · Hard work never results in reward, only in more responsibility and aching joints. · It doesn't matter how smart or good you are at something if you have a personality disorder. · No one listens to you unless you are rich or attractive. · Cherish your imagination while you have it, because once it's gone, it's gone for good. · Never engage with depressed 50 year old burnouts.

That last line... I'll engage one last time.

I know my advice will be worthless to a lot of people. Life is just shit sometimes and you can't do anything about it. People who make it just get lucky.
