Hello my fellow hivers . I am back again to share with you on my topic which is, "to quit is never an option". The biggest mistake we make is quitting without realizing that we are almost there.
Do you easily give up? "if you quit once it becomes a habit. Never quit!!!. Aron loved the outdoors . He enjoys hiking and mountain climbing and he loved them so much that he left his job as a mechanical engineer from intel to pursue his passion. Things went well for Aron far as his outdoor life went until that faithful day of April 26th, 2003. A day that will forever change Aron's life and everyone who will come to know his story.
Aron was hiking through Blue John Canyon on a hot April day. It was just like any other day for the adventurer and outdoors man . Until the unfortunate happened. While descending a slot Canyon , a boulder he dislodged while climbing down crushed his right hand against the canyon wall.
Aron spent the next five days and 7 hours of his life trapped, doing everything he can to survive. After consuming whatever amount of food and water he had left, he was forced to drink his own urine. Our of sheer desperation ,he tried his best to set himself free by amputating his trapped forearm but failed . He wasn't expecting to survive the night so he started to carve his name and presumed date of death against the crayon wall, much like a tombstone and started to video tape his final goodbyes to his family. You one knew where he was because,he didn't tell or inform anyone about his activities that day so no one will come looking for him.
On Thursday, May 1st, he attempted to cut off his forearm once again after having an epiphany that could break his radius and ulna by using a toque against his trapped hand . He performed the amputation for over an hour using a dull two-inch knife and by the stroke of a miracle, got himself free. He went back to his family who fed him and alerted the authorities. He was finally rescued six hours after.
Aron is now a motivational speaker and still continues to climb mountains whenever he can . He became the first person to climb all 59 ranked and he was named Cororado's fourteeners solo. This was a project he stared in 1997 and resumed after the amputation.
So my dear friends, Aron could have easily given up or quit at any point in those past five days but his persistence and determination got him out of the tragic situation he was in. The odds were against him but he did not quit.
Like Aron, we all go through situations in life where our tenacity and strengths are tested. Unfortunately, unlike Aron, some of us choose the easier way out by quitting whatever it is that we have set out to do. Quitting should never be an option if we want to achieve something because we will never know the reward that awaits us if we give up before the race even ends.
Thanks for reading to the end.
