Chapter 3 "Pain is the price. Glory is the receipt." Kane83

•Nothing real is free. Every ounce of success, every piece of glory, every proud moment you've ever dreamed of — it all demands payment upfront.

That payment is pain. Pain in the form of long nights, lonely sacrifices, sore muscles, broken pride, and silent battles that no one claps for.

You don’t get to skip the hard parts and still expect the prize. Glory doesn’t come to the comfortable. It comes stamped with scars, earned through every moment you kept going when it would’ve been easier to quit.

•Pain isn’t the enemy — it’s the invoice. When you feel pain on the path, it’s not a sign that you’re failing; it’s a sign that you're in the process of buying your greatness. Glory isn't found at the starting line.

It’s the receipt you get after you've paid — in discipline, endurance, and courage. When the pressure hits, remind yourself: this is the price... and I’m closer to owning my dream with every step.
