I have met failures in life quite often, but I seldomly gave up. And the moments when I gave up, the feelings of regret and guilt are quite young. With time I developed an attitude to hate the habit of giving up.

This trait is not about academics or physical strength only. Its about intellect as well. If I can't appreciate Shakespeare's hamlet t
