Many people think they want things, but they don't really have the strength, the discipline. They are weak. I believe that you get what you want if you want it badly enough.

The remark contrasts mere wishing with the sustained will required to turn desire into reality. Loren frames “wanting” as inseparable from discipline—an inner toughness that converts aspiration into action. The line also reflects a classic self-making narrative: outcomes are portrayed as largely contingent on personal resolve rather than luck or circumstance. Read charitably, it is a motivational claim about persistence and self-command; read critically, it risks oversimplifying structural barriers by implying that failure primarily indicates insufficient desire or strength. Either way, the quote’s force comes from its blunt moral psychology: desire is common, but commitment is rare.
