No matter how hard you try, you just can't bring your A-game all the time. And the sooner you realize this, the better you'll handle whatever comes at you.

Sometimes it's not even worth it to go out of your way to get the best results, because there's always something or someone waiting for you at the finish line, ready to complicate things or undo whatever progress you've made. Sometimes, it's okay to keep trying until you get it right. But other times, you should probably just let go.

Admitting you're not good at something can hurt a lot, but it will also save you from a lot of stress and undesirable situations nobody wants to be dragged to. But finding that sweet spot is the hard part.

So, here are some photos that perfectly illustrate the phrase “If at first you don't succeed, stop trying." Let's hope none of these are too close to home.
