People with the best intentions will often give you advice on why you shouldn’t take a risk because of what could happen.

Next time this happens, throw them a life-line, and ask them what is good about their situation.

One of my guiding principles is don't do anything that other people are doing. Always do something a little different if you can. The concept is that if you do it a little differently there is a greater potential for reward than if you the same thing that other people are doing.
