【Sea and River Night Talk】What’s worse than recklessness is indecision
Thread Content
What is worse than recklessness is hesitation. What’s worse than recklessness is being indecisive. Those who sway with every wind are just like the grass on the top of a wall; no matter how strong they may be, they are always easily defeated by those with firm beliefs. Acting vigorously and resolutely will inevitably lead to mistakes, but it is still better than doing nothing. People who are indecisive like grass on a wall, no matter how strong they are in other aspects, are always easily pushed aside in the race of life by those who are determined. Acting decisively inevitably leads to mistakes, but it’s better than not daring to do anything at all.
I would prefer to translate the English text into Chinese in a free-style manner, as that makes it easier to grasp the artistic connotation; however, I haven’t come up with any good words for translating these sentences

Reckless people are at most criticized for being too bold and acting without thinking, while those who are too hesitant are often told they act like women; are they still men? Even gender is denied: lol
Roll up your sleeves and get to work; say nothing more
