"Debemos liberarnos de la esperanza de que el mar alguna vez se calme. Debemos aprender a navegar con vientos fuertes."

Simplified Meaning:

Life is full of challenges and will never be completely smooth or easy. Just like the sea, which is always moving and never completely calm, we can’t wait for problems to disappear before we start moving forward. Instead, we need to learn how to deal with difficulties while they are happening. Imagine you are a sailor. If you keep waiting for the sea to be perfectly calm before you set sail, you will never start your journey. But if you learn how to sail even when the waves are high and the wind is strong, you’ll be able to keep going no matter what happens. In real life, this means accepting that we will face tough times and learning how to handle them. For example, if a student wants perfect study conditions before starting homework, they might never get anything done. Instead, they should learn to concentrate even if there is some noise or distraction. This way, they keep working towards their goals regardless of their surroundings. So, don't wait for the 'perfect' moment—learn to adapt and keep moving forward, even in difficult times.
