Why can’t I withdraw when I know its a losing battle? | S2E52

The problem is most people withdraw not by knowing but by feeling. To know is to apprehend fully. Apprehending fully the state of one’s battle - if one is even truly in battle - and to discern if the state of war is not worth pursing takes a lot more time and effort and discernment than simply quitting based on my unreliable feelings and impulsive reacting. Why did the musician quit the band quietly and quickly? He simply didn't want to cause treble!
