"Beaucoup de gens ont peur de dire ce qu'ils veulent. C'est pourquoi ils n'obtiennent pas ce qu'ils veulent."
— Madonna
Simplified Meaning:
Many people don't speak up about their desires, so they often miss out on what they truly want. Imagine a student in a classroom who really wants to understand the lesson better, but he is too shy to ask the teacher for help. Because he doesn't ask, he continues to struggle and doesn't do well on his tests. If he had just raised his hand and asked, the teacher could have helped him, and he would have understood the lesson better. In the same way, if someone at work wants a promotion but never tells their boss, the boss may not even know they're interested. As a result, the promotion might go to someone else who did speak up about their ambitions. It’s important to voice our needs and goals because that’s how we let others know what we want. By being clear about our desires, we create opportunities for ourselves. So, if there’s something you really want, don’t be afraid to say it—it’s the first step to getting it.
