"You can’t fall if you don’t climb. But there’s no joy in living your whole life on the ground."

In this anonymous quote, we’re reminded that with climbing, or taking action, we risk falling–i.e. failing. On the contrary, without climbing and without taking action we significantly reduce our chances of ever falling or failing.

No one wants to get hurt. So it would seem living our life on the ground and not climbing at all is our best option. Sometimes, this is the wisest decision we can make. But it can’t be the decision we make all the time. Occasionally, we have to step out of our comfort zone where it’s possible we might fall in order to see and experience the possibility of something greater that we’ll only be able to see once we climb.
