Why is giving up so frowned upon?
Giving up, the word itself is very frowned upon, but why?
Why should I keep fighting when I can never achieve anything and end up failing anyway?
Why not accept that my life is just like it is and that I can never achieve much?
Will never be healthy and able to work?
Never have a partner.
Who gives up has lost. It is the individual decision what the persons concerned want.
But there are people who have no chances
It has been abandoned because certain social norms are often overly simplified (which is also pertinent).
On the other hand, there are also opposite norms such as “the smarter gives after” or “only a horn ox always wants with the head through the wall” etc.
In general, a negative attitude to giving up is useful, however, since this is considered to be too positive or equivalent as justification for strong avoidance behavior or learned helplessness and/or It can serve hopelessness.
In addition, the question of whether a goal can be reached at all is not absolutely crucial – finally, our life is due to its unavoidable endurance and for itself Absurd – see also, albert Camus: “The Myth of Sisyphos”
When you give up your chances are set to 0. If you fight, there is at least the smallest hope. So what sounds better? No chance or at least some hope?
I never had chances
I don’t know your problem, so it’s hard to guess for me
