Sometimes life feels very hard, especially when we are working toward a big goal. There are moments when things don’t go as planned, and it feels like everything is falling apart. It’s normal to feel tired, frustrated, or even think about quitting. But these struggles are not there to stop you—they are there to help you grow. Just like a seed has to push through the soil to become a plant, you also have to push through your challenges to become stronger and reach your goal.

Think of a student who wants to become a doctor. Every day they face long study hours, tough exams, and sometimes even failure. It can feel overwhelming, and giving up may seem easier. But each struggle teaches them something new—better focus, more discipline, and stronger willpower. Slowly, they improve and move closer to their dream. If they gave up at the first sign of difficulty, they would never see the success waiting for them.

That’s why you should keep going. The hard times don’t mean you’re failing. They mean you are learning and becoming better. If you don’t stop, one day you will look back and see that every struggle helped you get where you are. Keep going—your success is closer than you think.
