Paying the price to succeed is a concept that many of us have heard, but few of us truly understand. To truly reach success, it requires hard work, dedication, and oftentimes, sacrifice. This is something I learned firsthand when I went through U.S. Army Ranger School.


Ranger School was a grueling course with a 72 percent attrition rate when I went through it. I was apprehensive about going but I was determined to make it through. When I stepped into Ranger School, I was tired, hungry, and not sleeping. I was pushed to my limits, but I persevered. After months of hard work, I finally graduated and pinned on the coveted black and gold ranger tab. It was then that I realized that paying the price was easy when it was worth it.


To me, getting the ranger tab was worth paying that price. This concept has many applications. For example, if you are working paycheck to paycheck and struggling to pay the bills and feed your family, it is worth paying the price to achieve your goals. But, it is important to be mindful of the offers that pop up on the Internet. Don't get caught up in every little get-rich-quick scheme. Do your research and make sure that you are investing in the right people to help you make money online.


Paying the price to succeed is not easy, but it is worth it. Success requires hard work, dedication, and oftentimes, sacrifice. But, if you are determined and persistent, you can achieve anything. So, what are you trying to achieve in your life right now that's worth something to you? It's time to take it to the top and pay the price.
