2 LOOK Before YOU LEAP
The implication of this proverb is not only an advice but
a warning against taking any sort of rash decision and action. There are some
people who are very impulsive by nature.
They work on the spur of moment without any consideration what may happen next.
This is highly improper and results in failure and sufferings. A general,
before he attacks the enemy, makes thorough enquirers about the strength and
position of latter and compares them with his own. Failure to do this sure to
result in defeat and may even end in disaster. Similar before we begin a house
we think carefully about the cost and about where the materials are to be got
from. Even if , we succeed in a work , this success will be worse than failure
if it produces undesirable consequences. Far from finding joy in it, we shall
regret it deeply. So, before we act we should carefully consider everything
about the action.We must always remember that hasty action is taking a leap in
the dark that generally defeats our desire.
