Do difficult things!

Force yourself and the people who work for you to do difficult things. It’s usually easy to make things go well if you’re willing to do difficult things. We must act as trainers in gyms act in order to keep each other fit. That’s what’s required to produce the excellence that benefits everyone. It is a law of nature that you must do difficult things to gain strength and power. As with working out, after a while you make the connection between doing difficult things and the benefits you get from doing them, and you come to look forward to doing these difficult things.

Ray Dalio, Principle nº75

PS If you do difficult things you will have less competition. You will fail more but when you win yon can make a lot. In training you have to do intervals if you want to progress. It's not easy to do interval's, you have to leave the comfort zone.
