Toddlers toddle. Unsteady, novice steps.

They fall. They get back up. They toddle more.

They do this unembarrassed. Even as others watch.

And slowly, over time, they learn.

As adults, we’re more self-conscious.

We don’t like to toddle in the areas where we’re learning. We don’t like to be seen toddling either.

But toddling is a part of growing. Those who can be comfortable with a beginner’s unsteadiness are those who will continue to grow.
