Struggles Will Either Strangle Or Strengthen You

Struggles Will Either Strangle or Strengthen You
By: Shawn Miller

The true strength of a man isn't defined how he plunges through when everything puzzles together like a jigsaw puzzle. True strength is found, and refined when a man is faced on head on with struggles. But he refuses to let the struggles strangle him into a stranglehold. Rather, a  man with true strength would see these struggles, as strength builder to ultimately lead to more desirable outcomes. Struggles will make you congruent, to where your future is ultimately going to lead you. Indeed, one's perspective of their own internal struggles can either give them some leverage, or will cut the slack on their ropes. In essence to truly build strength, similarly to muscle building in the gym. In order to build up strength, you will have to put that muscle in resistance. In other words, you will have to put that muscle under stress, and fatigue for it to grow. Every time that your threshold is limiting you, you are ultimately seeing any form of resistance as a limiting factor. My point here is that, in parallel with training the mind, in order for it to grow your mind must continually encounter a form of resistance.
Over the years, I remember when I first got into the depths of my writing. At first, I still remember those late nights, studying the greats in my niche, and writing till the graves of midnight. Now, that I peer back those struggles are what molded me into the self-reflection of what I am now. It was all a roller coaster ride with ups and downs and twists and turns. But these ultimately enabled me to embrace my weaknesses as true strength, opposed to paralyzes myself in agony. There's an end to every mountain range, every lake, and ever reservoir. If that is so then you have the infinite ability to see past these struggles, so life can flow you towards abundance and prosperity. River flow up and down stream. Likewise in life there's up and downs, but those ups and downs bring on future opportunity. Be optimistic and altruistic to the struggles, you are currently inhaling. And with open arms, don't be afraid to paddle your way to the deeps of the waters. A lot of individuals fall into resentment when struggles are arise, because they feel that struggles are individually based. When in reality beyond the obvious everyone struggles on a daily basis. But it ain't the struggles that will strangle you, it's your mindset and how you react to it's trigger. In closing, I would like to say to those reading my blog, embrace your struggles, because those struggles are what will make you arise to the highest of powers!!!
