Arnold said, “The human mind can only grow through resistance,”
“The more you struggle, the further you’re going to go and the stronger you’re going to get,” continued the True Lies actor.

“I don’t want really want to go through any discomfort’ — it’s over. You’re never gonna get there,” remarked the 76-year-old actor.
Arnold believed that people have “to learn to accept pain, misery, and discomfort — all of the things that you don’t like”.
“Because the more you experience the things you really don’t like, the more you can grow, and the tougher you get, and the more you can handle,” explained the actor.
Arnold disclosed, “So many young kids today kind of shy away from that.”
“Don’t start creating a generation of wimps and weak people. Where we’re concerned about, ‘How are you feeling today? I don’t want to hurt your feelings’” said the former governor of California.
Arnold stated, “It’s nice to be considerate. Yes, I totally agree with that.”
