There are risks and costs to action. But they are far less than the long range risks of comfortable inaction.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Whatever the dangers of the action we take, the dangers of inaction are far, far greater.
Risk more than others think safe.
Often you need to take some risk, but it must be a realistic risk, you can't take a crazy risk.
So many people condemn me for risk taking, but I find it sort of hypocritical because everybody takes risks. Even the absence of activity could be viewed as a risk. If you sit on the sofa for your entire life, you're running a higher risk of getting heart disease and cancer.
There's action only if there is danger.
Yeah, it's risky, but no more risky than driving a car.
Thoughtless risks are destructive, of course, but perhaps even more wasteful is thoughtless caution which prompts inaction and promotes failure to seize opportunity.
The trouble is, if you don't risk anything, you risk even more.
The actual danger is nothing, and the positive advantages very great.
Take the word of experience, I speak the truth: inaction is safest in danger.
