Summary

This quote illustrates the importance of taking risks and embracing uncertainties in order to achieve success. It suggests that one cannot achieve anything meaningful if they constantly wait for all possible dangers to be eliminated before taking action. To make progress, one must be willing to face adversity and navigate through challenging situations, just like a sailor must embark on a voyage despite the inherent risks associated with the sea. Ultimately, it urges individuals to have courage, resilience, and the willingness to step out of their comfort zones, recognizing that growth often lies beyond the realm of safety.

I know absolutely nothing about where I'm going. I'm fine with that. I'm happy about it. Before, I had nothing. I had no life, no friends, and no family really, and I didn't really care. I had nothing, and nothing to lose, and then I knew loss. What I cared about was gone; it was all lost. Now I have everything to gain; everything is a clean slate. It's all blank pages waiting to be written on. It's all about going forward. It's all about uncertainty and possibilities.

This force, which is the best thing in you, your highest self, will never respond to any ordinary half-hearted call, or any milk-and-water endeavor, It can only be reached by your supremest call, your supremest effort. It will respond only to the call that is backed up by the whole of you, not part of you; you must be all there in what you are trying to do. You must bring every particle of your energy, unanswerable resolution, your best efforts, your persistent industry to your task or the best will not come out of you. You must back up your ambition by your whole nature, by unbounded enthusiasm and a determination to win which knows no failure... Only a masterly call, a masterly will, a supreme effort, intense and persistent application, can unlock the door to your inner treasure and release your highest powers.
