Summary

This quote reflects the notion that by avoiding the initiation of a particular task, project, or relationship, one can avoid the potential for it to eventually come to a conclusion or failure. This perspective suggests that by preserving the idea or possibility of what something could be, there is an inclination to focus on the infinite potential and avoid the uncertainties and challenges that come with taking that first step towards actualization. It highlights the comfort and safety in remaining within the realm of imagination and possibility, rather than confronting the potential outcomes of action.
