How do you obtain anything worth having?

As humans we naturally desire to have anything that holds value aka anything worth having. Many things hold worth to people, some much more than others. There are many different ways of obtaining things in life. Some require extremely hard work, some require perseverance, while others are quite easy to obtain. Something in life that is worth having that requires hard work to obtain is money. Unless you are born into a wealthy family, in order to make money and support your lifestyle you need to work hard to get the money. In order to make a living one must do well in high school in order to proceed to college and earn a degree. If one wants to obtain even more money in their lifetime they would go for a higher degree, which would allow them to hold a better job, but would require more schooling, hard work, dedication and studying. Other things worth having take perseverance, for example: getting a wife/ husband. Couples usually date for about a year before getting engaged and in order to keep your significant other happy you need to constantly do certain things to make the relationship workout. Repeating these tasks over and over, month after month, shows that perseverance can work to help someone obtain something worth having, such as a husband/wife. An example of something that is worth having but easy to obtain is a family. Most of us are born into a loving, caring family who would do anything for each other. In order to keep the relationship, a certain amount of respect and love must constantly be shown towards everyone in the family. There are many things that are worth having in life and some ways to obtain these things come from hard work, perseverance, and some just come easy.
