"I learned that the only way you are going to get anywhere in life is to work hard at it. Whether yu're a musician, a writer, an athlete, or a businessman, there is no getting around it. If you do, you'll win - if you don't, you wont" - Bruce Jenner
Wanting a big house, a luxury car or a million dollars in the bank is all very nice, but the problem is that practically everyone wants these things. The question then is, "Are you willing to pay the price to get them?"
This is one of the major differences between the successful and the unsuccessful. Successful men and women find out what it's going to cost to make their dream come true. Then they find a way to make it happen. Most importantly, they don't complain about the work it takes to achieve their dreams.
Les Brown says he has a callus on his left ear. Why? "When I decided to get into speaking, I had no credentials, no reputation, no credibility and no experience. So I had to call a lot of people," Brown explains. "I called over a hundred people a day, day in and day out, to ask for an opportunity to speak to their group. This callus is worth several million dollars!"
You can get practically anything you want in life--if you are willing to pay the price.
Remember: PAIN IS ONLY TEMPORARY - THE BENEFITS LAST FOREVER
Jack Canfield writes "Part of paying the price is the willingness to do whatever it takes to get the job done. It comes from a declaration that you are going to get it done no matter what it takes, no matter how long it takes, no matter what comes up."
You are responsible for the results you intend.
"Anything worth doing well is worth doing badly in the beginning" - Marshall Thurber
You have to be willing to go thru the awkward stage in order to become proficient. To gain a new skill or get better at anything, you have to be willing to keep going when you look foolish or awkward for some time. - You've heard the saying "Practise makes perfect"
You need to know what the price is so that you can choose to pay it. So, investigate the steps that will be required to achieve your goal. You may discover that the costs are more than you want to pay (ie you may not want to risk your relationship, job, health, life savings etc).
Weigh in all of the factors concerned, and decide what is right for you and the price that you are willing to pay.
If what you want serves you in the long run, find out what you need to do and set about doing it.
Yours in success
