“To act is to be committed, and to be committed is to be in danger.”
— James Baldwin
Simplified Meaning:
When you decide to do something important, you are not just involved, but you also take on a risk. Think about someone who decides to start their own business. They put in a lot of money, time, and effort. They're committed to making it succeed. But this commitment also means there is a chance they could lose their money if the business fails. The idea here is that doing anything meaningful always comes with some risk. You can't achieve big things without being brave enough to face potential problems.
