Sometimes, the way to do business is to put your hands behind your back and walk away. You’ve done everything you can to make this product, relationship, partnership, arrangement, system, process work … and it won’t.

If the sun has truly set … walk away.
The alternative? Keep on keeping on. It may be the stoic’s choice, and maybe one time in fifty it pays off, but most times, and definitely this time, it’s the wrong way to go. Wrong because it’s a waste of time, wrong because you know it’s a waste of time, and wrong because if you carry on, nobody wins.
