If you do not learn and own the lesson of your struggle, you can get stuck in the struggle.

Often we are born or exist in the opposite of what our spirit truly is.  Sometimes we have to experience who we are NOT in order to know who we truly are.  So when you find your struggles, and you see the OPPOSITE of those struggles…it is then that you know your essence and who your spirit truly is.  This will lead you to your purpose. 

P.S. Remember you can have more than one purpose.
