In life, as in euchre, always make trump (that is, take lots of small risks).

For those not familiar, making trump is the first phase of playing a hand of euchre. It's the main way to score points, but it comes with a risk of losing even more points. But in practice, if you make trump every chance you have (instead of passing to the next player, the other option) your wins will more than make up for your losses.
