How do you know when to 'Give Up'?

[SSTrey]

By 'Give Up', I mean, to pivot OR change the road!

In everything I've learned & executed to date, I sometimes find myself in a predicament of a tug of war between my internal gut telling me to KEEP GOING or push on AND, in the words of Kevin Leary, --> 'take it behind the barn & shoot it.
I understand there is certainly a gut feeling element we often have, which helps us decide or let's us personally know if we have tried every avenue & executed every option on it to no avail. But oftentimes I hear about entrepreneurs who push the boundaries of persistence & discipline to either make it or to fail & dig a bigger hole for themselves.

How does one know, or will it forever be a non-exact science?!
