“Where there is no struggle, there is no strength”
— Oprah Winfrey
Simplified Meaning:
Growth and improvement often come from facing difficult situations. Imagine someone who lifts weights to build muscles. If they never increase the weight, their muscles won't get any stronger because there's no challenge. In life, it's similar; when we deal with problems or challenges, we learn, grow, and become stronger. Take for example Thomas Edison, who tried thousands of times to create the lightbulb. Each failure taught him something new and brought him closer to his goal. If he had given up at the first sign of difficulty, he wouldn’t have achieved success. This quote encourages us not to shy away from struggles because they can make us more resilient and capable. So, when faced with a challenge, we should remember that overcoming it will help us become better in the long run.
