Struggle is a more important measure of success than accomplishment? That is a completely assnine statement. I struggle at blackjack and the measure of my success or the lack there of is the fact that I lose all my money when I am playing. This question would not have even been relavant if not for the the fact that our current president is graded on a curve. Bush struggles everyday to prevent terrorism and the measure of his success should be that almost 3000 people died from a terrorist related incident on his watch. A competent leader would not have 'struggled ' with a report that indicated a terrorist attack was imminent, but our dear leader is given extra points because he is special. Yeah, he has had to overcome some obstacles, specificaly that he is a nimrod, but that does not make him a success; it just makes him an annoying nimrod. People are better off if the they try to find something that they are good at and excell at that, rather than trying to find something that they are not good at and persist on doing it anyway. No one wants to listen to someone sing off key in the chior and why reward a tone deaf musician, because they have to overcome their lack of talent they still suck.
