Why does struggling get such a bad wrap?
Struggling has gotten a bad wrap.
We seem to think that struggling is something that should be avoided.
We are hardwired to avoid struggles and discomfort. This is just a basic part of being human. Our brains have evolved to minimize effort and maximize efficiency.
Society and media look down on struggles.
The truth about struggling.
Struggling makes us stronger, more experienced, and more able to connect with others.
Struggling isn't the problem, it's the discomfort that we experience with the struggle.
Deep down we respect the struggle and those who overcome struggles and adversity. We love rooting for the underdog. We love hearing motivational stories about how people have overcome even the worst of times.
Struggles are a part of life that affects EVERYONE, not just our teens and not just people who have done something wrong.
If you take the time to think about it, you'll find areas of growth in your life that ONLY came about because of struggle and adversity. Struggles are nothing more than an opportunity to grow.
