I want to say cheesey things like "The only thing certain is uncertainty" and talk about the pangs of Hamlet, but instead I'll offer this bit of advice from Colin Powell I recall from previous HN threads:
Part I:"Use the formula P=40 to 70, in which P stands
for the probability of success and the numbers indicate
the percentage of information acquired."
Part II:"Once the information is in the 40 to 70 range, go with your gut."
