English term or phrase: realize it the hard way
The context:

A plaque on the wall said something that knocked me down, stunning me to ***realize #the bitterness of the conflict# the hard way***.

Disregard "the bitterness of the conflict". Just help me with the generic phrase: realize it the hard way.

Tampaknya, terjemahan mendekati harfiah ini yang paling "pass buat saiyya" (sebagaimana diucapkan SBY-Si Butet Yogya dalam satu iklan sepeda motor). Sedikit perbaikan adalah "susah-payah" dituliskan dengan tanda minus di tengah. Terimakasih para penyumbang saran!
