“The biggest mistake poker players make is the same one we all make in relationships, jobs and bad habits — not knowing when to quit.” ~ Jim Vanderhei, Axios

It’s hard to let go of Radio.

I haven’t decided whether that’s because Radio isn’t actually work most of the time – in other words, innate laziness – or because something about doing Radio is so fulfilling.

We all know people who’ve stuck with relationships way too long, when it almost becomes self-abuse.

Please don’t misunderstand: All relationships take work. Every single one.

And there’s plenty to admire in people who refuse to quit on themselves and work to become better.

But there’s a point where commitment is no longer useful.

And there’s a point where doing Radio is no longer useful.

It can’t be fulfilling because the people in control won’t let it be.

They won’t let you do what you do best: connect with others.

Look, there’s nothing wrong with sticking it out because it’s become sort of mindless and easy. We all have to make money somehow, right?

But if you got into it because of the human connection, if you did it all these years because you found that something you said once actually made one life better, you’ll need to find something else to replace that calling.

Don’t let that part of your being wither and die.

That’s not meant for any of us.

Our world needs more of that right now, not less.
