Whenever you start\nan activity, you only focus on the gain, thus ignoring the losses that come\nalong. Every single action has a side effect, a theory proven even in physics\nand chemistry. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During\nlife, one has to endure much, in order to achieve the social and material\nstatus desired by so many people. To get to live on the \u201ceasy street\u201d, you have\nto start from the beginning and later step out of the line and make yourself\nhard. You have to go through a lot of pain, especially moral pain, because you\nwill always be underrated and mistreated by your boss, who will generally think\nhe is superior. This feeling of inferiority usually makes a person work even\nharder than before, making his or her goals achievable. Without motivation, a\nperson cannot withstand the harsh and cruel road to wealth and fulfilment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I\nam sure that everyone wants to be fit. Unfortunately, it does not just come\nwith the snap of a finger. You have to work out regularly and improve your\nstamina. If you are quite unfit at the beginning, it will take a lot of pain on\nyour part to improve your physical fitness\u2014if running the extra few metres will\nmake you fit, go for it! Also, if you are inflexible for your age and you want\nto be more flexible, the best way to do that is to stretch. Yes, it might hurt\nat first and yes, it is painful, but you will be able to do a lot more sports\nand improve your physical fitness by being flexible. You might be asking:\nWhat\u2019s the gain? The gain is that sports make you happier throughout the day,\nimproving your look, inside and out, helping you concentrate better, making you\nsleep longer as well as drastically improving your health, reducing the risk of\ngetting diseases such as cancer, and making you live longer. Wow, that is a lot\nof gain! That is why pain is worth it\u2014for imagine if you never exercised at\nall, never ran that extra few metres, and never stretched! You would be\noverweight, moody, and at the risk of getting major diseases (among many other\nreasons). I would much rather be the first group of things listed above rather\nthan the second\u2014wouldn\u2019t you? That\u2019s why this is a good example of \u201cNo pain, no\ngain.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even\nthough the things that happened to Nelson Mandela for most of his life were unfair\n(namely being sent to jail for many years), he still fought on throughout the\nrest of his life. He did not give up, even though he had been in jail for so\nmany years\u2014living on rations of food and wearing the jail outfit, he would get\nhis friend to sometimes sneak in a copy of the local newspaper to him so that\nhe could find out what was going on in the world. In jail, he would be planning\nideas for what he would do once he was released. Because he went through pain,\nit actually made him a more patient person. When he was released at last, he\nfought against racism and eventually became the President of South Africa.\nLater on in life, he earned at least fifty awards\u2014which is a great gain from\nthe pain that he went through for most of his life in jail. If he had not\nfought his way out of jail, he would not have become President of South Africa\nand definitely would not have won any awards. Even though most of his life was\npain, the remainder of his life resulted in great gains that would make him\nfamous forever. He might have been able to accomplish all of this without going\nto prison, but I actually think that it made him a better person.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In conclusion, nothing good can happen to a person without some pain. Some people might think that pain only happens to bad people, but in truth, it happens to every person who wants to make a difference in this world. That is why you have to realise that nothing is going to hand itself over to you\u2014you have to work for it. And if that means going through some pain, it does not matter, for if you work hard enough, you will definitely get some gain out of it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nowadays, all people care about is money, wealth and gain of any kind.
