Risk is clearly not a pleasant word to the ears of many.

But do you know that most of the most prominent people we know now are popular only because of the risky decisions they took?

Nelson Mandela,Ben Carson and the likes all took one risky decision or another.
Peter F Drucker once said

People who do not take risks generally make about two big mistakes a year.

Jim Carrey also said

It is better to risk starving to death than to surrender. If you give up on your dreams,whats left?

Remember when you were a little kid when mom and dad made all the major decisions for you like the school you attend, clothes you wear and other things. But YOU get to that stage where you take decisions about your college,courses to take and various other risky decisions!

What then does risk mean?
The term RISK means something that seems unpleasant,dangerous,daring and challenging.

BENEFITS OF RISK TAKING

  • Embracing risks helps you to overcome every fear of failure.
  • When you take risks, you become more creative and lucrative.
  • Taking risks helps to unveil all of your hidden potentials.

No man is worth his salt who is not ready at all times to risk his well being, to risk his body,to risk his life in a great cause......Theodore Rossevelt.

Embrace risks today,but remember to do so with the application of wisdom.

Appreciation to @brightobias, @sovega and @cryptokannon for distant and close mentorship.

Thanks, there is truth in what you said about taking risk. In defining a meaning of BUSINESS, a Dictionary gives nine definitions and in one of it's definitions is says" a business is taking of risk". Yes, if you don't take risk you can not be in business.
Thanks.
