"Tener fe es confiar en el agua. Cuando nadas no te agarras del agua, porque si lo haces te hundirás y te ahogarás. En cambio, te relajas y flotas."
— Alan Watts
Simplified Meaning:
Believing in yourself is like learning to swim. If you panic and try to hold onto the water, you won't stay afloat and you'll struggle. Instead, the key to staying on top of the water is to stay calm and trust that your body, with just a little effort, can float. Think about someone starting their first job. If they're always second-guessing themselves and trying to control everything out of fear, they're going to feel overwhelmed and struggle with stress. But if they trust their training and abilities, stay calm, and tackle tasks one step at a time, they'll find they can handle the job and even excel. Just like floating in water, success and confidence come from trusting yourself and not fighting against your natural ability to stay afloat.
