Knowing when to Quit

KNOW WHEN TO QUIT!!!!!  Sometimes it may be when you are ahead, sometimes it may be when you are behind, and sometimes you may have just broken even…..but there will never be a time when a little angel will come and tap you on the shoulder to inform you that you should stop doing whatever you are doing.  NEVER!!!  You have to figure out that bit of information by yourself and, granted, oftentimes it is the most difficult and elusive decision to arrive at amongst a veritable battalion of daunting ones.  Ceasing whatever you are doing, especially if you have invested mucho time into a venture, is never easy but sometimes necessary in deference to the “Big Picture”.  Ergo, I reckon “knowing when to quit” and intelligence should stand side-by-side as synonyms in the wise man’s thesaurus.
