Louisa May Alcott

Simplified Meaning:

When someone says they are not scared of storms because they are learning to sail their ship, they mean that they aren’t afraid of difficult times because they are gaining the skills to handle them. Think about a person learning to drive a car. At first, things like rain or heavy traffic might seem very scary. But as they practice and get better at driving, those challenges start to feel less frightening because they know what to do. The same idea can be applied to life. If you are facing a hard situation, like starting a new job or dealing with a problem at home, it’s natural to feel worried. But each time you face a challenge and try to solve it, you get a bit better at handling difficulties. Over time, this makes you more confident and less afraid of facing new problems. In history, for example, many great leaders faced tough times, but they weren't afraid because they knew each challenge made them stronger and better prepared for the future. In your own life, remembering that each problem you solve teaches you something important can help you stay calm and confident, even when things get tough.
