Every coin has two sides. 1 There is no exception to cautiousness. 2 Cautiousness, on one hand, can help us avoid losses brought about by impulsive decisions.

A young man loves his job very much, but after a few years of working, he has a thought of starting a business because of his dissatisfaction with all kinds of restrictions in his job. However, since he had the thought of establishing a business, ten years have passed and he still works in the company. Why? Because each time he tried, he felt that it was not the right time, for example, insufficient funds, sluggish economy, the birth of children... 5 This story told us that being too cautious and being afraid of trying something new may cause serious damage to our achievements. 6
In today’s fast-developing society, opportunities can be fleeting. Only those who dare to make decisions can grasp the opportunities and achieve success. 7
任何事情都有兩面性,謹慎也不例外。謹慎,從一方面來說,能幫助我們避免因沖動作出錯誤決定而造成損失。但從另一方面來說,過度的謹慎也會使我們錯失良機。因而有人相信,過度謹慎危害最大。
有個年輕人很喜歡他的工作,但是工作幾年后,他對于工作上的種種限制愈發(fā)不滿,因而想創(chuàng)業(yè)。然而,自從他有創(chuàng)業(yè)的想法以來,10年過去了,他依然在原來的公司上班。為什么呢?因為他每次試圖創(chuàng)業(yè)時,總是感覺時機不成熟。例如,資金不足,經濟不景氣,新嬰兒的誕生……這個故事告訴我們,過于慎重而不敢嘗試新的事物,會對我們的成就造成嚴重的傷害。
在今天這個高速發(fā)展的社會,機會稍縱即逝,只有那些敢于決斷的人才能把握住機會,獲得成功。
