All actions have risks. Most inactions even more so.

You don't concentrate on risks. You concentrate on results. No risk is too great to prevent the necessary job from getting done.

There is the risk you cannot afford to take, [and] there is the risk you cannot afford not to take. PETER DRUCKER

The risk of a wrong decision is preferable to the terror of indecision.

Take Action: Success is not guaranteed but inaction will guaranty failure.

The price of inaction is far greater than the cost of making a mistake.

Not mathematically possible,” ANEC replied. “All actions have risks. Most inactions even more so.

Keeping your options open” is frequently more of a risk than committing to a plan of action.

Government actions often provide substantial benefits to a few while imposing small costs on many.

Whenever you create anything, you take a risk. And that includes your life. It may work out, it may not. It may be well received, it may not be. . . .
It's always a risk to take action. It might not work, it might blow up in your face, you might lose money, you might fail. No one may get it.

But that's not the only risk. There's another risk: the risk of not trying it.

How is not trying a risk? You risk settling and continuing in the same direction in the same way, wondering about other paths and possibilities, believing that this is as good as it gets while discontent gnaws away at your soul.

Action is about living fully. Inaction is the way that we deny life. Inaction is sitting in front of the television every day for years because you are afraid to be alive and to take the risk of expressing what you are. Expressing what you are is taking action.

On the path to successful action, we will fail — possibly many times. And that’s okay. It can be a good thing, even. Action and failure are two sides of the same coin. One doesn’t come without the other. What breaks this critical connection down is when people stop acting — because they’ve taken failure the wrong way.

If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure.B

Nothing in life is worthwhile unless you take risks. Fall forward. Every failed experiment is one step closer to success.
