"Whoever watches the wind will not plant; whoever looks at the clouds will not reap."
- Ecclesiastes 11:4
One thing people are most afraid to do in life is take a risk. People don't like the feeling of not knowing how certain actions can pan out when they do something with unforeseen outcomes. It could be confessing your feelings to someone, taking a promotion at work, or even moving out of your parents' house. Regardless of the reasoning, the same outcome will come if no risk is taken - nothing. Close mouths don't get fed. In life, you have to be able to take risks and take action when necessary. If you wait around for the perfect conditions, you will never achieve the things you want. I'm not saying that things will work out perfectly if you do take a risk, but I am saying if you go through life never trying something because you're afraid of things not working out, you will only be holding yourself back from great possibilities and opportunities.
