Double down or Stop Loss ?

No I am not talking about your money in stocks. I am talking about your time, which you are spending, it can be some project or your day job, or a relationship.

Sometime, we start it because it felt right at that time, but down the line, we loose the calm and it does not works. You try few things, it works for some time but again anytime you slips it seems to come down to start point again.

But as they say, these are the test of your patience an perseverance, you should not give up. Face the situation and double down, you do that. You do all nighters, deliver the project but stills it doesn't pass the review. You do it again, there are few more points, that doesn't pass. You start questioning your self. Now you are locked while taking any decision, weather this will pass review of your manager, and not what seems right thing to do.

It can also be seen as a opportunity to improve your people skill and how you manage stress, and sometime it also appears to be its better to move on by trusting your ability to find what you like, without the criticism following you there.

Its seems the stress is part of the all the jobs, as I get from talking to my other friends, everyone seems to be okay with it. Is it okay?

How do you decide weather to double-down or trigger stop loss and move on?
