I don’t think there’s any problem with advancing consciousness and becoming more and more aware of the struggle, not with the world, not to convince other people to do anything.

I love to give the song away - it's so exciting - where, I think, a lot of younger songwriters, they struggle with that.

But luckily, I've been through that, so I can just focus on helping other people do their thing.

Let me give you a word of the philosophy of reform. The whole history of the progress of human liberty shows that all concessions yet made to her august claims, have been born of earnest struggle. The conflict has been exciting, agitating, all-absorbing, and for the time being, putting all other tumults to silence. It must do this or it does nothing. If there is no struggle there is no progress.

It is okay to be at a place of struggle. Struggle is just another word for growth. Even the most evolved beings find themselves in a place of struggle now and then.

So if you are struggling right now, see it as a terrific sign - celebrate your struggle.
