    I know this is just a joke, but I’m reading a book on quitting right now and one of the points she is driving home is that if you quit at the right time, it tends to feel too early to quit.

      How to differentiate it from actually quitting too early?

        It feels too early. The idea is that you have to recognize your own cognitive and social biases that make us want to persist and objectively determine whether it makes sense to go on.

        Quit: The Power of Knowing When to Walk Away

        Definitely an interesting read ( or listen as I’ve done).
