The crown of life is like the victory wreath given for winning athletes (1 Corinthians 9:25 (NIV) - "Everyone who competes in the games goes into strict training. They do it to get a crown that will not last; but we do it to get a crown that will last forever"). God's crown of life is not glory and honor here on earth, but the reward of eternal life - living with God forever. The way to be in God's winners' circle is by loving Him and staying faithful even under pressure.
