It's still better than doing nothing.
Doing nothing could be the best thing, as long as you don't drop dead from not breathing.
There are bad people out there who want you to be afraid. Your fear rewards them. Don't pay the fear tax they crave. If you are afraid, they win. If you restrict your life because you fear their presence, they win. I don't want the bad guys to win. Do you?
Your worst enemy cannot harm you as much as your own unguarded thoughts. Buddha
I think it's kinda the same sentiment.
