Those mistaken expressions do not describe what actually happens when you try to change something. You are not likely to be killed or fall to pieces. If the outcome isn't what you had hoped, you may experience some mild discomfort, and that's all. Mild discomfort is part of the risk for achieving final success.
When those strong expressions bother you, you won't take a risk. The only things that will be "killed" are your initiative, your confidence, and your advancement.
You can advance your career by knowing the differences between risk and danger. Here's the difference: Risk is when an outcome is uncertain. Danger is when your flesh will be torn.
Some new ideas succeed. Some don't. the risk of failure does not make the future dangerous. Your flesh will not get torn during most changes.
