Learn the hard way

means to gain understanding or wisdom through pain, mistakes, or experience — not through advice or theory.  It’s when reality becomes your teacher.

Examples:

1-  After losing an important client, the company learned the hard way that honesty builds trust faster than marketing.
2-  After the war, nations learned the hard way that peace can’t be built on pride or revenge.
