George Eliot on Risk

No great deed is done by falterers who ask for certainty.

-George Eliot (Mary Ann Evans) (1819-1880)
English writer

Give more reminder…

Always seeking certainty before taking action can severely limit productivity. In some cases, the evaluation and search for certainty is more costly than a potential failure due to action.

Worst case scenario for a wrong move is generally nothing more than an education (1 of the 4 points to better resilience).

Consider getting in the game a bit earlier the next time an opportunity arises… and risk the uncertainty.
