If you shoot for the stars and hit the moon, it's OK. But you've got to shoot for something. A lot of people don't even shoot.
(Confucius, Chinese Philosopher)
To shoot or to step out and try is extremely rewarding because you begin to gather a set of experiences that other people are too scared to even act out on. I say shoot for the stars for when that is attempted a whole new exciting environment of experiences are opened up to those who try.
