“Don’t be afraid to give up the good to go for the great”
— John D. Rockefeller

Simplified Meaning:
Sometimes, we have to let go of things that are just okay to reach for something much better. Imagine you have a job that's fine, but you dream of starting your own business. Keeping the job feels safe, but it stops you from trying something new that could be amazing. Just like a caterpillar must leave its safe cocoon to become a butterfly, people must leave their comfort zones to achieve great success. This can be scary because good things feel secure, but taking risks can lead to wonderful new opportunities. So, to achieve our biggest dreams, we sometimes need to give up the good things that hold us back.
