If you dare nothing, then when the day is over, nothing is all you will have gained.

Neil Gaiman
About This Quote

To dare is to put yourself in a position where failure could occur. Usually, that failure will be painful. Success comes from the self-assurance that you will succeed when you dare. In other words, when you dare nothing, then when the day is over, nothing is all you will have gained.

If you fail to take action and try something new, then you could end up with the same result as what you already have, and you’ve wasted time and energy on something that doesn’t work out. If you dare nothing, then when the day is over, nothing is all you will have gained.
