How to Believe in Your Success and Manage Risk

Thanks of. You're absolutely right. There *is* more to lose by not trying. I think the biggest challenge is that the potential pain of "failure" is immediate and acute, while the pain of not doing anything builds up over time. That pain may ultimately be greater, but people get used to tolerating it.
