Go for it you will never know and always regret not having a go. If it fails you had the courage of your convictions and if it succeds well done but one things for sure you will never know until you try.

Commitees in my experience don't work have helpers by all means that work for and support you,descions when starting something new are best left to one person and again whatever the result its yours.

One more peice of advice think carefully of when and where and go for it.
