Short-term thinking, however, always short-circuits the human life. When you cannot let go of what controls you, you have become less human, not more…If you really want to quit, then you no longer belong to you. This is no time for macho pride or “I-can-do-this-myself” bravado. I don’t mean this in just a Christian way either: yes, we belong to Jesus Christ because he purchased our lives with his blood. But you’ll also have to give up your authority to good people around you.
