Take risks to be more successful!

Be an entrepreneur!

By The Breatharian BloggerPublished 4 years ago 3 min read

Are you playing it too safe and failing to achieve your goals? Are you caught in your comfort zone, believing that you will never make a mistake, lose money, or experience stress in your life? Although it seems to be the "happy life," it is really the "no-life" way to live your life.

One of the things that prevent us from taking chances is our need for protection and safety. As human beings, we have a natural tendency to gravitate toward what is comfortable and dependable. Things that we can manage and are familiar with an appeal to us. However, as Hellen Keller put it: "The majority of people believe in security as a superstition. Naturally, it does not exist, and neither do the offspring of men as a whole have any experience with it. In the long term, avoiding risk is no more safe than being exposed to it directly.

Either life is a risky adventure, or it is nothing at all." This need for "work stability" and other similar comforts is precisely what prevents the majority of people from having a really fulfilling and successful life. The sense of safety causes people to lose sight of the reality that, in the end, life is passing them by as they hide in the woods and wait for the inevitable. The true way of life is to be out in the open.

Of course, there are lots of folks in the area who are actually walking on the verge of falling down a cliff and taking foolish risks. These vary from innocuous unprotected intercourse to drunken driving and drug and alcohol misuse, among other things. It is, without a question, dangerous behavior, but it is not, under any circumstances, clever or deliberate risk-taking. Such risks are just irresponsible. As a dreamer, you must avoid taking foolish risks and being taken advantage of by foolish risk-takers.

That means being willing to make errors, taking unusual or controversial stances, never being afraid to take on a challenge, and being focused on your goals and doing whatever it takes to accomplish them. By taking such chances, you may further your own personal development, integrity, and success. You must engage in some activity that challenges you to extend from your current condition to a state of higher personal development in order to progress. In business, as much as in our personal lives, we must be honest and forthright. Take risks while studying, solving issues, producing new products, or finding new phenomena if you want to make quantum jumps in your career.

Everything you will ever undertake in your life will be fraught with danger. By definition, the risk is the chance of suffering a loss or suffering a tragedy. As a result, "being alive at all is fraught with danger." The danger of dying is greater than the risk of remaining alive. Whenever you go to school, you run the danger of failing your classes. When you get married, you run the danger of becoming divorced. When you are behind the wheel, you run the chance of getting involved in an accident. The sheer essence of existence necessitates the acceptance of danger. A little infant would never learn to walk, speak, or connect socially unless he or she took chances, experienced triumphs, and failures, and then monitored and adjusted as needed to meet his or her goals.

It is more likely that you will not accomplish anything if you delay for an extended period of time. The ability to take action is critical for the development of self-confidence. With each tiny victory, you will gain confidence in your ability to take greater and better risks in the future. Consequently, take chances in order to be a successful person in life and to attain your objectives and aspirations.
