Paul had a very hard life with all the troubles he endured: persecutions, shipwrecks, prison, beatings, stoning, etc. Despite all the distractions he kept his focus on one thing, and that is how he remained faithful to the end.
Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. Philippians 3:13,14
What are the distractions that you face? Even so, you can win too, just keep you eye on the prize!
Finally, there is laid up for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give to me on that Day, and not to me only but also to all who have loved His appearing. 2 Timothy 4:8
