Building castles in the air is only wise if you build a ladder to reach them.

About This Quote

You can’t just build a castle in the air. You have to build a ladder and then climb up and claim it as your own. To create something from nothing is a bit too dream-like for most of us. Instead, we need to make our dreams become reality by setting our feet on the ground and taking small steps every day toward what we want to achieve. Think about it: It’s easy to dream about climbing a mountain, but it takes a lot more effort to climb the first step that leads to the mountain.
