Simplified meaning
When things seem tough and it feels like everything is working against you, think about how planes work. Planes need to go against the wind to lift off the ground and start flying. This helps them rise up and gather speed. Similarly, facing challenges can make you stronger and help you grow. For instance, someone who loses their job might feel like it's very hard to get through, but this could push them to learn new skills and find an even better job. Just like the plane needs the wind, we need challenges to help us improve and reach new heights.
