Simplified Meaning:

This quote is about valuing effort and taking chances more than fearing death. Imagine you want to climb a mountain. The real fear isn’t about falling or getting hurt; it’s about missing out on the adventure and the sense of achievement because you never tried. It’s better to take risks and try new things than to live with regrets because you were too afraid to start. This mindset encourages you to focus on action and growth rather than being held back by worry. By embracing opportunities and trying, you can experience life fully and learn a lot, even if you fail sometimes.
