The moment a plan stops being safe and starts being your fault.
means To carry out a plan or decision by actually putting it into practice — turning intention into action, with all the risk that implies.
from From Latin 'implementum,' meaning 'a filling up' or 'that which fills out,' from 'implere' — 'to fill' (in- 'into' + plere 'to fill'). The word first meant a tool or instrument used to complete a task, before the verb sense emerged: to use the tools, to actually get the thing done. The shift from noun to verb carries a quiet warning — once you had the wrench, eventually you had to turn it.
