Consider Consequence

When we do everything, we surely will have consequence, either good or bad. We do not have to think about good consequence, but we must be aware to think about bad consequence which will bring us trouble or disaster by what we have done.
Many, many examples can be listed for our reference. Say we buy shares on which we may lose or profit. If profit, we do not have to think about, but we have to think if we lose. If the cost of shares is all our own money, it is not a problem, either we lose or profit, but if we borrow money from bank, the matter is serious. We must think that whether we can afford the loss from shares.
If we are a man of popularity, we have to behave very carefully even if on small affairs. Society is watching us on what we have said or done. We are not so free to do anything on our personal life.
As English proverb said: “Look before you jump.” This tells us that when we do anything, we must consider the consequence carefully beforehand. For example, think the consequence if you drive after drinking. You may be a VIP in the party one hour ago or your will be a prisoner in jail one hour after.
In our whole life, we have to do many things by our own will or we are forced to do something by others command. No matter in what position we are, we must know the consequence.
