Check your pocket before you enter a hotel. Haste makes waste. Rash decisions are always dangerous. This is what the saying “Look before you leap” means. You must weigh the pros and cons of your decision before you act on it. It is always better to find the merits and demerits of any venture before entering into it. See where you are going to leap; it is always better to know the risk involved in it. History is full of such incidents, e.g., when rashness costs a lot.

Napoleon decided to attack Russia without taking into consideration the fierce winter in that country. As a result of this rashness and miscalculation, his armies were trapped in the snow and thus lost the iron guard, the main strength of the army. One must have patience, plan well, see the risks involved, and then act. He will positively get success. So it is true to say, “Look before you leap”.
