This one is easy.
If you have a clear vision, then the question of risk or no risk will not really occur to you. Nothing will come in your way because you are not driven by anything other than your burning desire to manifest what you see in your mind’s eye in the real world.
But if you have a foot in the old world, a place where you might fall back, then you will fall back. There is no way to make something new while being a part of the old. The new comes from the new, it does not come from the old.
Be bold. Find out who you are, and become who you are meant to be. Don’t waffle. It’s fine to be wrong, but take a stand, and have a point of view. Take action, that’s all there is. Everything else is commentary and not essential. Focus on learning which can only come from experience, and know that no one knows anything.
And also, give yourself no quarters. Burn the bridges does not mean setting anything aflame, but closing off all pathways of retreat. There is no way but forward. People may call you relentless, but you do not see any labels, just an urgency of action because it has to be done, the thing has to be born, and there is no choice in the matter.
If you are not prepared for this, then do not start. There is no trying, there is only doing. Why try, when you can act decisively, full of awareness, full of purpose, and full of passion to move the world forward? Why try for that, why not just put everything in and do your bit?
When you do the thing for its own sake, then it will come into being. It will then take you on a journey that you will not be able to imagine, indeed, because you had no expectation other than it takes form, that it be alive.
