Go with what you know instead of letting what you don't know paralyse you.
(paraphrased from Mike Donehey)
It can be so easy to let what we don't know hold us back, especially if you are the sort of person who can easily see all the risks.
It is easier to turn a ship if it is moving. Yes, it can take a long time to turn, but the forward momentum helps. A course correction can only be made if you're actually on a course. If you stand around waiting to know for sure which way to move forward, you're not going anywhere.
What if I take the 'wrong' path? Well, then you just turn around and retrace your steps, or find a path that links back up with where you want to be going. Maybe by taking that path you'll discover something new.
Moving forward with the knowledge you have - using the gifts you've been given in the ways you know how - is the best thing you can do until you have more information. So let's move forward until we receive a course correction.
