“To reach a port we must set sail. Sail, not tie at anchor. Sail, not drift”
— Franklin D. Roosevelt
Simplified Meaning:
To get somewhere, we need to actively move towards it. Just like a ship needs to leave the dock and sail to reach a destination, we have to take action to achieve our goals. Simply staying in one place or letting life push us around won't get us there. For example, if you want to learn a new skill, you have to start practicing regularly, not just think about it or hope it happens by itself. This means putting in the effort and making clear steps forward. By doing this, we can reach our aspirations and not just stay stuck where we are.
