“If there is a book that you want to read, but it hasn't been written yet, then you must write it.”
What this quote means
This quote urges us not to wait passively for things to happen. If you feel a gap, a story that doesn't exist yet, it's a sign that you're meant to create it. It celebrates the courage to fill voids, to bring to life what we miss. It applies to all fields, not just literature: creating a project, art, a solution. It's a call to action, to trust your desire as a compass.
How to apply it daily
