check please (translation of a great russian proverb)
The harder you feel yourself in learning, the easier you feel yourself in fighting.ok, so maybe:
The harder you work to learn, the easier the fight will be (for you).
or, The harder you work while learning, the easier (it will be) for you when fighting.
The harder you train, the easier the fight. (or, the battle).

It's explanation and example of proverb.
Russians have a proverb: "Тяжело в учение, легко в бою". Those words were said by Alexander Vasilyevich Suvorov, who was a Russian military leader and national hero (1730-1800). Translation of that proverb is: "The harder you feel yourself in learning, the easier you feel yourself in fighting”. Of course he said it about military activity and he said it to inspire Russian soldiers to master their war skills as high as possible. But it became wide spread because you can refer it to any learning activity. When you say those words to somebody, at least in Russia, it makes him\her focus on the future situation. He\she would think: “I would have fewer problems with a job or have better opportunities for better life, because of my hard work now”. I hope it helps you.

I would say 'The harder you learn, the easier you fight', but I don't think it has a good translation.
