"如果你不参加比赛,你既不会赢也不会输。"

David Bowie

Simplified Meaning:

If you don't try something, you can't succeed, but you also can't fail. Imagine a student thinking about joining a school competition. If the student doesn't participate, they won't have the chance to win a trophy. However, they also won't experience the disappointment of losing. This quote suggests that avoiding challenges means missing out on both the rewards and the setbacks. To grow and achieve something, you need to take a step forward and get involved. Just like in life, we must face our fears and take risks—whether it's in our careers, relationships, or personal goals—because staying on the sidelines keeps us stuck in the same place.
