Some

often hear that there is nothing impossible in the world unless they work hard in order to achieve the desired result.

This

point of view has some merits and demerits which I am going to discuss in the essay. The first advantage of the strategy is that

beliefs create extra pressure on them. They work unstoppable and if they do not achieve a certain goal they think that they have not worked enough.
