There will be pain

You can’t get from where you are to where you want to be without a lot of pain.

Will the pain be worth it? Questionable.

Perhaps it will be so unbearable that you quit. There’s no shame in quitting. People say there is, but there really isn’t. Quitting is just the acknowledgment that the reward is not worth the pain.

Those who have become successful have been willing to sacrifice their minds and bodies, played through the pain, and were able to come out the other side. There is no growth without pain. The people who got successful survived more pain than you can ever imagine.

The quicker you understand that concept, the easier you will be able to deal with the pain when it comes. More importantly, the quicker you can recover from it. Two things separate the successful from the not:

1. The amount of pain they can endure
2. How quickly they can recover from the pain they receive

If you don’t want to live with the pain, then you can quit, but if you don’t want to quit, you have to work on those two things.
