The thought of struggling scares most of us. We’ll do all we can to avoid it but struggle comes anyway. When we’re in the middle of it all our focus is on getting free from it. There is not much thought of what we’re becoming because of the struggle we’re going through. It’s not until we’ve grown out of it that we can look back and see what it did for us.

The truth is there can be no growth without the struggle. Just like the seed has to break through the dirt and darkness to become what it’s called to be, we have to do the same. We have to break free from old habits and negative thinking to grow into who we’re called to be.

Each of us has a choice when struggle comes, push through it or stay in it. In order to grow you have to push through it, all the while remembering that growth is happening even if you don’t see or feel it right now. There is no growth without struggle.

Evolution of Self!
