In the book, "The Power of Now", Eckhart Tolle writes: "The purpose of existence is to be in the process of creation. The process itself consists of three stages: awareness, active participation and then cessation or completion." In this quote, he is making a connection between taking risks and believing in one’s ability to create a new reality while one is in the process of creating it. As he says, “the greatest glory in living lies not in never falling, but in rising every time we fall.”
