2020/9/21. The Taking a rest(More than courage to quit)
If someone start doing something without thinking about it deeply, they don’t have courage to quit something.
The courage to quit is more important than the courage to start.
People often think quitting something is negative thing.
There is the words, “Sunk cost”.

People often don’t want to pay sunk cost.
For example, something is learning programming language.
If people start it, the decision’s cost most include money, time and energy for it.
More cost people paid, more sunk cost is there.
If we begin not to pay additional cost about it, what can we do?
Stop it? Less time for it? Quit it?
I prefer to use this words, “Taking a rest about it”.
Quitting it perfectly robs possibility in future.
Stopping it sounds negative.
But taking a rest sounds balanced position.
If you don’t want to pay sunk cost or have courage to quit, I hope you to take a rest about it.
In my experience, I have taken a rest(about one month) for three times during learning programming language.
But I released five iPhone apps finally.
There is no need to quit it, just take a rest about it.
Courage to quit is important, but “Taking a rest” is powerful words.
