The juice is worth the squeeze

So, what this heading means ? Is it a phrase ? Where it is used ? Does it make any sense ?.....these all types of question came to my mind when I first heard this line "the juice is worth the squeeze".
It was from a movie named The Girl Next Door. It was really a romantic movie but a different one because in every love story, everything is predictable  but this movie just amazed me. There is a high school boy who is cautious about his studies and he just got bored with his life. One day a girl came living next door to him and the both became very good friends and after that they both became a very sexy couple. Then from few sources the boy came to know that she's a porn star, of course he reacted like anything but later on he realizes that he's being such a dick and after that they patch up with each other and the story goes on....many more explicit things happened in this movie but i can't type much. So let's come to the point "the juice is worth the squeeze", this line was quoted by one of a friend of the girl. He said the meaning of this sentence is "you won't steal my girl unless you are ready to accept the consequences". Honestly I really don't think that the meaning is relevant to the actual words. The only sense I made out of these words is that "you put some effort in doing something that is squeezing the container, and you get a very good result that is the juice".
The movie was OK, I loved it but few scenes are still a mystery for me, just for the sake of line THE JUICE IS WORTH THE SQUEEZE.

I couldn't sleep last night

When did you sleep last? an hour ago, two, three or five or may be 12 hours. Ask me when did I slept last, I must say 37 hours ago. I don't know what is happening with me that I couldn't make it to my bed, literally saying because more or less I go to bed at 12 O' clock but I couldn't make it to that sweet heaven, sleeping. So I discussed this problem with my friends and they have a similar problem too and I know you too especially the folks of my age group. "we are such stuff as dreams are made on and our little life is rounded with a sleep" The above divine lines are of William Shakespeare which indicates that our life is bounded in a sleep where we progress through our dreams. but i guess this is not applied to me 'cause I cannot sleep too well. Every time I go to my bed, switch off the lights and just try to sleep but couldn't. I get thoughts of what I did today or in the past days like today I went on a quiz competition conducted by BIT Mesra ...

Breaking free from the past

You are what you choose today not what you've chosen before.   Only a ghost roams around in the past explaining himself the things done by him or what he could be 'if' he would have done that. This feeling is not inappropriate, it happens to best of us but that can be used in harmful ways. "once you label me, you negate me".People will label you every time but its up to you that how you should react to it. Whether you'll just accept it "yes! I'm like that" or will you improve it "It's okay, i'll work on it". Otherwise it's very  easy to use the label as a justification for remaining the same or as an excuse for not working on your weaknesses. You may have to fight a battle more than once to win it You can bring to unknot the ropes that link you to your past and eliminate the fruitless sentences which are spoken to keep you just   as you've always been. Self nagging is a negative trait. It comes from our habit of ...
