Choose your suffering
"The Real Secret of Success
Choose Your Suffering.
Everything you want in life; every goal you want to achieve; every dream you want to manifest: all comes with a price tag.
Legitimate success in any endeavor requires that you pay upfront, in full and with your own sweat.
There is no other way.
To achieve any goal, you must choose the suffering that is right for you.
Subsequently, you must live with the consequences of that decision.
The moment you choose to not continue to pay the price of success, is the moment you choose to suffer the consequences of failure, which is, the WORST kind of suffering.
The suffering cost of failure is ALWAYS higher than the suffering price of success.
The cost and consequences of success in a job, relationship, career, or any area can cause a monumental amount of disruption and chaos in your life.
Here are some examples of the suffering costs of failure:
If you lack financial discipline, you will suffer the consequences of debt, harassing bill collectors and sleepless nights.
If you do not manage your diet, you will suffer the cost of diabetes and poor fitting clothing.
By not keeping your promises or honoring your commitments, you will suffer the loss of reputation and contaminated character.
Sooner or later, each of us must choose to pay the price of success or pay the cost of failure.
Sooner or later, you will come to the understanding that you MUST choose your suffering.
The price of success is often more than people are willing to pay. But, it's not more than they are capable of paying.
Here are some example of the suffering costs of success:
If you suffer the cost of disciplined spending and investing habits, you will have peace of mind and an early retirement.
If you suffer the cost of daily exercise and nutrition, you enjoy a great physique and an exception quality of life.
By suffering the cost and inconvenience of going the extra mile for your clients, you will enjoy bigger commissions and increased opportunities in life.
By suffering the cost of preparation and doing more than what's expected, you will enhance your reputation, expand your opportunities and increase your social capital.
The price of success is temporary discomfort. The price of failure must be paid forever."
Gary Ryan Blair"
Choice is a powerful thing. Most of us humans have no idea that we have this superpower.
We choose the path we want to take in life; in everything and always.
Choose wisely.
