Hebrews 12:11 (NIV): "No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those who have been trained by it."
2 Timothy 2:3-6 (NIV): "Join with me in suffering, like a good soldier of Christ Jesus. No one serving as a soldier gets entangled in civilian affairs, but rather tries to please his commanding officer. Similarly, anyone who competes as an athlete does not receive the victor’s crown except by competing according to the rules. The hardworking farmer should be the first to receive a share of the crops."
Proverbs 10:4 (NIV): "Lazy hands make for poverty, but diligent hands bring wealth."
Proverbs 13:4 (NIV): "A sluggard’s appetite is never filled, but the desires of the diligent are fully satisfied."
These verses emphasize the idea that hard work, discipline, and perseverance are often necessary for success and achievement, even though they may involve temporary discomfort or pain
