Taking Action

土日にお願いしている先生と。

1. What do you have to lose? is used to tell someone to take a risk because the situation cannot get any worse.

Just go up to him and tell him you like him. What do you have to lose?

2. What are you waiting for? is used to convince someone to do something immediately.

There’s a flash sale on airline tickets? What are you waiting for? Book our tickets to Brazil already!

3. It’s worth a shot is an expression used to encourage someone to try something even though success or good results are not guaranteed.

Try to give her flowers as an apology. It may not work, but it’s worth a shot.

YOLO stands for the phrase You Only Live Once.
