William Shedd Inspirational Quote

“A ship is safe in harbor but that’s not what ships are for.”
William Shedd

Here’s a quote that is suggesting you need to step out of your comfort zone. Like ships, we have our safe places…which is not a bad thing by any means, but like ships, I don’t think that’s what life is for.

I truly believe as human beings we are meant to explore. Not just cities or new landscapes but the inner recesses of our minds, bodies and souls. So while it may be safe to maintain the status quo, it ain’t gonna give us a whole lot to do so.

We need to step up to the plate and push ourselves to be the best we can be in every way, physically, mentally, spiritually, emotionally. On every level of our beings we need to be sailing as far and wide as we can!

A ship is safe in harbor but that's not what ships are for.
