Never Quit: A Lesson from The Apprentice

I was shocked after a recent task on The Apprentice, when a candidate resigned instead of taking her chances in the boardroom. After having a tough time as project manager - and knowing her teammates certainly didn’t like her - Michelle threw in the towel and quit.
I was amazed that she would throw away such an opportunity. She had a chance at catapulting into the business spotlight, a chance at a high-profile job in a high-powered corporation. Yet, she chose to throw it all away.
It’s a business lesson I teach over and over again: “Never, ever give up. Never quit. You can never be successful if you give up.”
In this case, Michelle had plenty of excuses. She said her Apprentice experience wasn’t what she had signed up for. She didn’t expect to be on a losing team, living in tents in the rain. She said the negative adventure just wasn’t worth it to her.
Had she gone to the boardroom, she probably would’ve been fired. But I would have had much more respect for her had she taken her chances and fought for her job than just give up. But she didn’t even try. She conceded defeat without a struggle, without a whimper.
It takes strong people to succeed in business. And if you quit, you don’t stand a chance.
