If you have ease around you, your mind will be shut,

Einstein said that one should not pursue goals that are easily achieved. One must develop an instinct for what one can just barely achieve through one's greatest efforts. Our mind is the greatest asset we have. This precious asset is in its best form when we face difficult and challenging issues. This helps our mind to think creatively and find solutions we never thought of before. If you have ease and comfort around you, your mind will remain shut. Our Creator wants us to unfold the potential of our minds. This is why the Quran says we have created man in hardship.
