I came up with a saying the other day that piggybacks on "Nothing ventured nothing gained," it's, "nothing ventured, you don't have to carry baggage."
I think the phrase "nothing ventured nothing gained" gets used a little too freely. People give themselves the excuse to do stupid things, which they know aren't good for them. It's always good to keep in mind that the choices we make can have consequences, sometimes good, sometimes bad, very frequently both.
Always remember to make smart choices not whimsical ones. I think that’s what bugs me the most about the phrase, “nothing ventured nothing gained.” Yes, not venturing isn’t a good idea but there’s a middle ground one should abide by. Everyone should be prepared for the bagged that comes with venturing out. They will have to carry it
