“If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it. If you don't ask, the answer is always no. If you don't step forward, you're always in the same place.”
What this quote means
Nora Roberts, famous novelist, pushes us to action. This quote is a call not to remain passive in the face of our desires. If you don't go after what you want, you'll never have it; if you don't ask, the answer is always no; if you don't step forward, you'll stay in the same place. It emphasizes the importance of taking risks and stepping out of your comfort zone. The fear of failure should not paralyze us, because inaction is a certainty of not getting what we wish for.
