Step Forward into Growth or...

"You will either step forward into growth or you will step back into safety" -  Abraham Maslow

Stepping forward into growth means getting into the unknown because growth always lies in the unknown. In other words, stepping back into safety means playing it safe within the known territory.

The situation you face doesn't really matter. With any situation, you always have a choice, getting into unknown or playing it safe with known.

Safety is very important obviously. But if you always prioritize your safety so high, then you will miss the chance to grow. It would be an animalistic way of living. Human has a higher objective than just surviving. And it is your choice to make whether stepping forward into growth or stepping backward into safety.

Coronavirus, COVID-19 has been spreading rapidly in a global scale. People need to protect themselves as much as possible. Governments, organizations, communities try to suppress the spread aggressively. People go shopping to secure goods such as masks and toilet paper. With the situation, you still have an option how to behave. It's all yours.
