Taking Risks

~ Gottfried

If there’s a slight chance at getting something that will make you happy, risk it. Life is too short and happiness is rare. Create your own happiness. Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far one can go.  Do one thing every day that scares you.

Hard work never killed anyone, but why take the risk? I don’t know about you but when I have to make a decision, I analyze the situation, evaluate the risk, take measures to limit the consequences and then I still completely screw it up. As expected.

Risk comes from not knowing what you’re doing. And if you think about it deeply, nobody knows what they’re doing. Living with fear stops us from taking risks, and if you don’t go out on the branch, you’re never going to get the best fruit. Feel the adrenaline rush while almost falling!

Taking risk takes practice. Send that risky text, the worst thing she’ll do is get a restraining order against you. And it’ll be worth it in the end. You’ll finally come to your senses. Every risk is worth taking as long as it’s for a good cause and contributes to a good life. 

People who don’t take risks make at least two big mistakes per year. People who do take risks generally make about two big mistakes per year. If you risk nothing then you risk everything. Where’s the fun without a bit of risk? Suddenly you can’t see their profile photo anymore!

A ship is safe in the harbor. But that’s not what ships are for. What good are you to the world if you spend all your time locked away in your room daydreaming? Life is like diarrhea. No matter how hard you try to stop it, the shit just keeps coming. It’s coming!

Let loose and drop that bomb 💣

  8. That deactivating profile pics is real. I took risk in quitting my job to focus on forex after my first cashout, no one saw my profile for a year when things went sideways.
