Agree 100% for a couple of reasons.

First, you don’t always know when you suck—with experience, we get better at realizing it but no one is foolproof.

Second, how can you get better if you don’t take chances? You don’t.

According to the Index, I was the last poster in this thread but I do not see it nor did I right after I wrote the post. Did anyone?

No, I saw your name also but nothing was there. I have had a few of messages go to "message purgatory" myself over the years.


When you are at the checkout line and they ask if you found everything say "Why, are you hiding stuff?"

There's also the distinct possibility that you don't suck nearly as bad as you think...

I think that is so important in so many aspects of life. If one doesn't take some chances/risks then one will likely remain one of the many, the groundswell, the ordinary.
