Summary

This quote suggests that when we constantly choose to play it safe and avoid taking risks, we unknowingly contribute to a world that is filled with insecurity. By always clinging to familiar routines and avoiding challenging situations, we fail to grow and adapt to change, which ultimately leaves us ill-prepared to handle uncertainties and unexpected events. Thus, this quote serves as a reminder that true security comes from embracing challenges and stepping out of our comfort zones rather than seeking shelter in familiarity.

There are 5+ billion people out there now who are willing to study harder, work harder for less money and be more industrious than we are. And we're linked to them by technology.
