I always figure it's because when you take a step on a ladder, you have to let go momentarily of the rung you're on to swing up to the next one. You can't move or grow without giving up the safety of where you are. It's especially scary if you're not altogether sure what where you'll end up will look like.
Some of us may clamber up fearlessly. But I suspect that many of us may think that it isn't quite worth the risk.
