No Pain=No Growth

    If we are honest all of us will admit that some of the hardest things for us to do in life involve continuing to push through pain, disappointment, and hardship, though these are common elements in all of our lives. At no time in the past can we find any demonstration of gain  that did not involve pain of some sort. As a student of The Honorable Elijah Muhammad under the guidance of Minister Louis Farrakhan I have been taught that struggle is ordained. Now does this then mean that this is a divine principle, if so then life and struggle are not enemies but companions, like two twins.

    All of us have heard the saying "No Pain, No Gain. The question then is how do we gain through pain. When we place strain on our muscles through resistance training we injure the muscles, once that happens, then your muscles starts to repair  themselves and in this process they become larger, stronger,and even better able to resist the stress and strain that the body was just under. No pain, No gain.

    If this happens with the body then what happens to the mind when it comes under stress and faces resistance. The more we face difficult situations and push on through the pain the stronger our minds become and better able to handle not just the situation at hand but even more able to handle struggles we will face in the future.

    We are born to face opposition. And we are also born with the power to overcome that same opposition. We just have to learn to push on though struggle.
