"Look before you leap" vs "He who hesitates is lost"
"Many hands make light work" vs "Too many cooks spoil the broth"
I don't know that those have to be in conflict... If you make a 1 word change to the second. "Too many chefs spoil the broth". Good to have extra hands helping, in almost every case - but only if the hands are well directed. If everyone thinks they're in charge, or doesn't know the scope of where they're in charge, odds of success drop.
I liked it the way it was thank you. I guess too many editors spoil the sentence. ;)
