“If you decide that you’re going to do only the things you know are going to work, you’re going to leave a lot of opportunity on the table.”
— Jeff Bezos

Simplified Meaning:
If you always play it safe and only do things you are sure will work, you will miss out on many chances to succeed and grow. Imagine a student who only answers questions they are 100% sure about on a test. They might avoid mistakes, but they will also miss the opportunity to show what they know and potentially get more points. Similarly, in life, being afraid to take risks can prevent you from discovering new talents, making new friends, or finding better job opportunities. It's important to try new things, even if they might not work out, because that's how we learn and find the best opportunities. Taking chances can lead to unexpected success and personal growth.
