“He who is not courageous enough to take risks will accomplish nothing in life.” – Muhammad Ali
“If failure is not an option, then, most of the time, neither is success.” – Seth Godin
You need to take calculated risks to get ahead in life. The more risks you take, the more likely you are to trip and stumble. But, as long as you pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and keep going, you’re also more likely to make the most out of this life.
If you don’t take risks, if failure is not an option and you’re playing too cautiously/conservatively, be prepared to live a life of mediocrity. You will blend in with the crowd, disappearing into nothingness.
