Why is success so handsomely rewarded?

Why is success so handsomely rewarded? Because the price paid is steep. You will have to get out of your comfort zone, develop new disciplines, feel frustration, deal with the negativity of others, overcome obstacles, focus intensely, confront your fears, and do battle with your worst enemy, yourself. The road will be hard and fraught with danger. Your character will be tested, and tested, then tested some more. However, if you stay the course and grow through the challenges, one day you will look back and say “If had I known then what I know now, I would have gladly paid a larger price.” Are you willing to pay?
