Why Playing It Safe Might Be Costing You More Than You Think

Why Playing It Safe Might Be Costing You More Than You Think

What if the real risk in life isn’t aiming too high…
but aiming too low—and settling for it?


In this short, thought-provoking episode, Simerjeet Singh reflects on a powerful quote by Michelangelo that challenges how we think about ambition, success, and self-worth.


This isn’t a push to chase more for the sake of it.
It’s a quiet reminder that playing safe for too long can slowly disconnect you from who you’re capable of becoming.


In just three minutes, this reflection invites you to ask:
– Where have I lowered my expectations of myself?
– Am I choosing comfort over growth?
– What would change if I aimed higher—with honesty, not ego?


The episode closes with a poetic reminder about fear, courage, and possibility—leaving you with a question worth carrying into your day.
