because when you look at things, it's very disappointing. You're not where you believe you should be based on the time and effort you've put in.

And that's why most people fail in business, because when they're in this valley of disappointment, they don't see a way out. They think they're putting in too much effort and time. They're not making the progress that they believe they should be making, so they feel pain and they give up. Now, the 1% who succeed, they make it to this point right here. This is the 1%. And once you get to this point, your actual situation exceeds what you believe, and that's where success kicks in.

And if you stick it through, you'll be part of the 1% as well.
