About this Quote

This quote by Denis Waitley is a pointer that life has plenty of dangers and unpredictabilities. We can never ensure the outcome of any circumstance, however we can take actions to lessen the threats we take. The most significant danger we can take is to do nothing. When we not do anything, we are not taking any action to improve our lives or the lives of those around us. We are not taking any steps to move on and make progress. We are not taking any dangers to reach our objectives and dreams. Doing nothing is the riskiest thing we can do because it avoids us from accomplishing our potential. We must take dangers in order to grow and reach our goals. We must want to take risks in order to make development and progress. Not doing anything is the biggest danger we can take, and it needs to be prevented at all expenses.
