It can take a lot of experience to be able to reliably tell the difference. I think that an occasional failure is fine, but if you quit too often then you may be quitting too early or you may be working harder than you are ready for.

Listening to your body and acting on it. That's all really good stuff, although sometimes it may be a little hard to tell the difference between soreness/tightness and actual injury related pain.
