Your Struggle May Be Useless – The Hidden Truth About Growth No One Told You

When we talk about successful people, we often glorify one thing: struggle.

We repeatedly hear, “They struggled a lot, that’s why they succeeded.”

Over time, this belief becomes so deeply rooted that we start thinking:

“To become successful, I MUST struggle.”

But today, I’m going to reveal something that may shock you:

👉 Struggle is NOT always necessary for success.

👉 Some struggles make you grow, but some destroy your peace.

👉 Some struggles bring success closer, but some push success away.

In this blog, you will discover the REAL truth:

There are two types of struggles — one that builds you and one that breaks you.

And knowing the difference can save you years of unnecessary suffering.

What Does Struggle Actually Mean?

Before we divide struggles into good or bad, let’s understand what struggle really is.

Struggle = Resistance.

Resistance against what?

Against discomfort Against uncertainty Against fear Against reality

A struggle always has one common sign:

➡️ You don’t know whether you will succeed or not.

➡️ Your mind feels restless and doubtful.

➡️ You feel uncomfortable, anxious, and emotionally unstable.

But remember…

Not every struggle is harmful.

Some struggles are necessary.

Some struggles build you.

Let’s see which ones.

The Good Struggle – The One That Makes You Stronger

Some struggles are essential for growth.

These struggles transform you physically, mentally, and psychologically.

1. Physical Struggle (For Body Transformation)

If you want a better physique or six-pack abs, you MUST go through:

Intense workouts Strict diet Discipline Resisting sweets and oily foods

This type of struggle is healthy.

It strengthens your body and self-control.

2. Mental Struggle (For Skill Development)

When you want to learn a new skill—like video editing, coding, writing, trading, or public speaking—you must go through:

Deep focus Concentration Mental pressure Long hours of practice

This mental effort builds your mind.

It increases your capability.

3. Psychological Struggle (For Inner Growth)

Emotional maturity requires inner work:

Observing your habits Understanding your triggers Correcting unconscious patterns Reflecting deeply

This is a positive struggle.

It makes you emotionally stable, wise, and aware.

But There Is a Dangerous Type of Struggle…

Some struggles don’t build you.

They break you.

They drain your energy.

They make you more negative, impatient, and emotionally toxic.

Let’s expose them.

The Bad Struggle – The One That Destroys You

1. The Struggle Against Your Life Situations

This is the most common destructive struggle.

People keep blaming:

“I didn’t get good parents…” “I didn’t get good opportunities…” “My childhood wasn’t supportive…” “Life gave me nothing…”

This constant resistance creates:

Negativity Victim mentality Self-pity Lack of confidence Emotional damage

This struggle NEVER leads to success.

It only increases pain.

2. The Struggle of Holding onto Toxic People or Environments

Sometimes your growth requires letting go.

But people say:

“I can’t leave this person…” “I want to stay attached to them…” “I want my life to be exactly the way it was…”

This creates emotional suffocation.

The more you resist change,

the more you suffer.

3. The Struggle of Desperation (Wanting Immediate Results)

This is the silent killer of success.

When you become desperate:

“I want success NOW…” “I want results fast…” “Things must happen EXACTLY how I want…”

You create HUGE resistance inside yourself.

When you chase success with anxiety,

you push success away.

Success flows to those who are:

Calm Patient Aligned Surrendered

Not to those who are desperate.

Why Surrender Ends the Wrong Struggle

This is not just philosophy; it is spiritual science.

In the Bhagavad Gita, Lord Krishna says:

“Surrender to Me, and your struggles will end.”

Why?

Because surrender means:

Dropping ego

Dropping resistance

Dropping unrealistic expectations

Trusting the universe

Accepting the present moment.

When you surrender, the toxic struggle ends.

Life becomes smoother.

Growth becomes natural.

Why Some People Succeed Without Struggle

You must have seen people who grow easily.

It looks like success comes naturally to them.

But why?

Because:

They are aligned with their path They don’t fight unnecessary battles They don’t resist life They do not cling to negativity They surrender instead of forcing

Sometimes the universe is already ready to give you what you deserve.

But your resistance delays your blessings.

Ask Yourself: Is Your Struggle Healthy or Harmful?

Here is the life-transforming question:

“Is my struggle building me or destroying me?”

If your struggle:

✔ Strengthens you

✔ Builds discipline

✔ Expands your mind

✔ Makes you emotionally wise

Then it is a good struggle.

But if your struggle:

✘ Makes you bitter

✘ Makes you impatient

✘ Makes you negative

✘ Gives you anxiety

✘ Destroys your peace

Then it is a useless struggle.

Drop it immediately.

Final Message: Don’t Struggle Blindly—Struggle Wisely

Not all struggle is noble.

Some struggles elevate you.

Some struggles destroy you.

Choose your struggle carefully.

👉 Good struggle builds your destiny.

👉 Bad struggle destroys it.
