I believe that nothing in this world comes totally free.
I have been able to even conduct some personal experiment and seen that it's true.
You may believe that you can easily earn something without having to strive for it. Even the breath you take in every single moment of your life, requires your will to live, eating healthy and so many other things.
Coming to making money for example, a friend once told me that this phenomena we know as money, is something that you ultimately get to pay for. Either you show value, or skill, or hardwork or even money to be able to get it.
Sometimes all, you need to put in, is just your effort and things will work out good.
Just imagine that there is nothing like a price to pay or a sacrifice to make before somethings can be achieved. The world will be a haven for the lazy and cheats.
Get to inspect many that have attained so many high places in life, they did not just give their time, money or value, but also went as long as forfeiting something. Some go sleepless to ensure that some ventures they enter don't let them down. Many who choose to tow the illegal means of attainment get to sacrifice their peace of mind!
Little wonder why Shakira said,
"You can't achieve anything in life without a small amount of sacrifice."
Know this!
There is always a price you pay for anything you get in life, but the ball is in your court and don't forget that if the sacrifice is worth more than the attainment, then the goal is not worth it as you'll end up destroying yourself!
