Risks

Everything we do is a risk. Inaction is a risk as well. Inaction can be measured as opportunity cost. So life is about balancing risks. Sometimes you have to take risks and they don't seem to pay off. The good news is, most risks that we take are recoverable. Many successful business people have previously gone bankrupt. They took a risk and failed, but they were able to recover from it.

Take risks, but calculate them carefully. Have backup plans, but be willing to abandon your plans when they don't go as planned :)

The bigger the risk, the bigger the reward. But also, the bigger the risk of failing. Being risk adverse may be safe but it lowers your ceiling.

The point of this is to highlight that everything is a risk. So choose which risk makes most sense for you.
