Determination

I like to seem more determined than most people. Even if it seems Im obsessed. If Im going through more bother than its worth then eventually I'll give up but Id much rather never try than give up on something halfway. I'll try gauging it in my head before I start.

In the end it doesn't really matter because you die. :)

If I have to die, then everyone will die with me! *trance*

I know when to quit, and that's when the extra effort needed to complete the task outweighs the reward you get from completing it. Personal challenges (Beginner Minesweeper in 6 seconds, woo!) are a little different, and I normally choose to give up when I find myself unable to get any closer to my target, at which point I decide that I've done the best I possibly can and call it a day.

I never give up.

Depends on how much coffee I've had.

I'm not even kidding.

I give up quite easily.. I blame my lazyness :(

NO! PARAPHRASING!

I thought this would be about the Chrono Trigger OST. :\

I don't think I could ever look myself in the mirror if I walked away from a goal.

Well, determination is a good thing. However, when I feel like what I was pursuing isn't worth the effort, or like I might end up hurting myself, I let go.

I'm determined to the point of stubbornness.

I'm not determined much. :/

The only thing I usually give up is arguments. With my dad, after about two minutes because he's so ignorant it just upsets me (he's really, really racist), with Raistlin after the third time he's said the same retarded argument, and with BJ about after a couple of hours where we sit in silence for awhile then make up.

I give up in video-games when one part takes me more than 10 tries to complete. *coughcough*Looking at you, Viewtiful Joe.*coughcough* Same goes for math problems. If an answer doesn't come to me within 15-20 minutes, I give up. I pretty much do my best for everything else. About a year back, I was working out with my friend(various exercises and whatnot) and he pushed me to my limit, possibly further and I could have easily quit, but didn't.

I could say the same thing about you, Shlup. :p
