Why Risk-Taking?

I believe most of the time we are afraid to take risk in our life but in this world there is no risk free things, example if you laugh some people think that you are fool if you buy a new car they can suspect you that you are a thief or corrupted if you get married there is a risk called divorce, if you go in to a competition you might lose, whatever we do we cannot avoid risk, but we can minimize it and most of the time the thing that we want is found after taking risk.

This day trying to live riskless life is by itself the greatest risk.

Unforeseen opportunities often come from risk-taking. We tend to view risk-taking negatively, but beyond being personally or professionally beneficial, taking risks may be a necessary step in actively pursuing success.

Often regarding it as dangerous and even unwise. But while some risks certainly don't pay off, it's important to remember that some do reframing risk as an opportunity to succeed rather than a path to failure.

Taking risks shows confidence and helps you to stand out.

But risk doesn't need to involve danger; it need involve only uncertainty. And I think it’s an activity with uncertain outcomes and they aren't necessarily bad.

When it comes to risk-taking, there are two extremes. Some people are afraid to take even reasonable risks, wanting guaranteed results, this can result in a life that's flat and lacklustre. Others take risks easily, believing that their willingness to leap makes them courageous.

But taking major risks without thinking them through is foolish, and such people often find themselves picking up the pieces of shattered dreams.

Taking risks shows confidence and helps you stand out taking a risk is also a great opportunity to stand out and to present yourself as a leader, not a follower satisfied with the status quo Tamara Abdel-Jaber, who is the CEO of the tech company Palma and was named one of the

Fear of taking risk paralyze our confidence in life.

The best learning happens just beyond our comfort zone. So, we should not be afraid to take calculated risk. 100 Most Powerful Arab Women in Arabian Business Magazine in 2011, told Women 2.0:

Rrisk-taking can bring, it also provides an opportunity for internal growth.

The way I see it, many people don’t have many resources or they do not know their resources well and they might lack knowledge to utilize their resource in order to stand out, expend a little extra effort from my experience. I used to refrain from taking risk.

There come times in everyone's life when you're faced with a choice that involves risk, perhaps you want to change careers, move to a different place, quit your job and start a business, begin a new relationship, have a child creatively, you may be faced with a choice of doing what you know is marketable or going out on a limb with your own vision, or giving up a steady job to follow your creative pursuits full-time.

Risk is, by nature, scary. It's uncertain and unpredictable. You're heading off into uncharted territory. You may lose your life savings or lose face.

You risk criticism and humiliation, or having to pick up the pieces and start all over again, you're giving up what you know for what might be the rewards can be great, but so can the cost.

I am passionate about knowledge and pursued that from an early age by working hard in school and have continued to do so through out my life I read many self-help books and practice it in my life journey. The info and knowledge I got from my parent, from books, from movie, from friends helped me to be confident, and I like taking risks.

We lost so many opportunities because of lack of taking risk.

When we see the fact of our world with tangible examples people who take big risks through time they meet with success. If they are determined focused organised well informed.

Risk taking is not something that people are comfortable with, in fact, most people are risk averse, and so we need to encourage them to take more risks and even bigger risks. Unfortunately, this can then lead to more mistakes and failures, and if we are intolerant of them, then this will kill our risk-taking initiative.

What would we get from taking risk? I believe taking risk can give us the next seven things.

Risk opens you up to new ideas, skills, opportunities and experiences.

Risk teaches you to set clear goals and follow through whatever the size is.

Risk allows you to feel powerful and proactive, making things happen rather than waiting for them to happen to you.

Risk gives you an opportunity to open to your talents, interests, abilities and dreams it opens new doors.

Risk allows you to grow and discover new things about yourself and the world, to develop your strengths and talents.

Risk allows you to conquer all your planted fears and it cleared out all your doubt and unfair self-limitation belief.

Risk is exhilarating it makes you come alive and it gives you freedom and mental peace.

We learn from risks and those lessons may lead us on an important, new path but beyond the external opportunities and recognition risk-taking can bring, it also provides an opportunity for internal growth and it empower our self-confidence and it give us a courage not to be afraid to try so many new things.

In my opinion mistake tolerance is a necessity for creating a risk-taking culture, not the actual goal itself, creating a culture of smart risk-taking where people fully understand the risk they are about to take, they have worked to minimize failure. We must be ready to know the impact of any potential failure and have a plan to deal with it or they know that the level of failure will be acceptable.

One who takes risks learns faster than the one who avoid taking risk.

Heather Rabats, the first female non-executive director of The Football Association, told the BBC in an interview for the Woman's Hour Power List Success won't fall in your lap you must pursue it. And she is right. We should not be spectator, we should be doer. Without doing something whatever beautiful idea we have we could not get anything out of it, if we do not change our ideas in to action it will remain in us as wishful thinking and wishful thinking doesn’t change anything.

But beyond being personally or professionally beneficial, taking risks may be a necessary step in actively pursuing success when asked how she became the first female CEO of a television network in a Huffington Post interview, Kay Koplovitz responded:

Be courageous act, take risk.

The sources of all success in life is action. Means taking a risk and you must be comfortable that you can think your way through and execute your way through to the desired outcome. And we should develop a strong passion to say I expected to be successful:

Understanding calculated risk when you begin to build your new business, you will hear your friends and family its very common to mention how businesses can easily fail, especially when first starting out. This is certainly true, but you can put your business in the best position to succeed by minimizing big risks and focusing on taking calculated risk.

Calculated risk is exactly what it sounds like. If you have a big problem in your business, you will likely have several options on how to approach it and solve it. Each solution will have its own set of benefits and drawbacks and it is up to you, the entrepreneur, to figure out which is going to help your business the most.

I wanted to be successful and I can be successful by taking risk to reach to my goal.

No one can achieve his dreams by playing it safe risk-taking won't only potentially benefit the career-path you're already on it may open you up to a world of possibilities.

If we think of risk as anything with a questionable outcome, then "pretty much everything we do has some degree of risk to it.

In Filipino, elementary school students use an inflated tire tube to cross a river on their way to school in a remote village in Rizal province, east of the capital Manila. The students must walk for at least an hour a day to get to and from school, and are sometimes forced to skip classes or take shelter at relatives' homes if the river is swollen due to heavy rains.

Back in China, around 80 school children who live in the boarding school at Pili, must embark on a perilous 125-mile journey through the mountains of the remote Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region, at the end of their term.

When you see these Philippines and Chinese kids, in our everyday routine and we assume everyone else is doing the same thing. However, to see that these children have to risk their lives to go to school opens a different perspective. Human beings here and there do not have the same opportunities and rights because of culture geography access of information their government and some other reasons.

I am not trying to convince you in any form I know it’s crazy to compare how we are all living at the same time and basically trying to do the same things or trying to accomplish the same goal, and contrast how we should go about it but my main aim is to open your eyes to different situations and facts at least take a risk to see new dimension.

You have yet to consider President and CEO of engender Health Pamela Barnes urged female professionals to leave their comfort zone to achieve their potential in an interview with The Grindstone:

There is no discovery without risk and what you risk reveals what you value.

Until we are willing to put ourselves out there and take a risk, we will never be able to achieve professional success and realize our potential it’s time to leave our comfort zone; time to go after what we’re passionate about; and time to achieve our dreams.

Successful people are a kind of people who are never afraid to take risk.

Embracing risk-taking helps you overcome a fear of failure. For many of us may be fear of failure is a major road block to our success, failure is not the opposite of success but a stepping stone to success. so, we cannot succeed without being failed somewhere in the journey so failure should be taken as a road to success not as a destination.

Because if you take a risk, you just might find what you're looking for.

Taking a risk doesn't mean doing so haphazardly People don't benefit from risks without preparing to take them and educating themselves on the possible fall-out. While I'm a risk taker, at the same time, I do my homework and understand the importance of implementation and follow through I have learned this on my journey and taking risk sometimes our friends they can see us as a crazy person who tries the impossible things. But here one thing that we should notice.

Only those who will risk going too far can possibly find out how far it is possible to go.

The wright brothers when they planned to fly heavy metal on the sky it was absurd and funny jokes to many people of that time, but when they did it when they flew their first airplane on air people will filled with surprise and kept quite so.

Don’t worry about what others say. If you know your vision if you have passion to develop it in to action take a risk.

Do not limit yourself because of fear or doubt. Follow your dream take a risk.

The real fun is found by steeping to the unknown by the step we take to grab the new opportunities the new things the new progress to our life. And to do this taking risk help us to get out of our comfort zone. We must acknowledge the benefits getting out of our fear box.

So many unforeseen opportunities often come from risk-taking.

We usually tend to view risk-taking negatively, often regarding it as dangerous and even unwise. But while some risks certainly don’t pay off, it’s important to remember that some do. Reframing risk as an opportunity to succeed rather than a path to failure is something.

We learn from risks and those lessons may lead us on an important, new path.

The way to develop self-confidence is to do the thing you fear and get a record of successful experiences behind you, destiny is not a matter of chance, it is a matter of choice; it is not a thing to be waited for, it is a thing to be achieved and to do all this we should dare to take risk.

some positive steps

Most of the time we sit with our denial and we argue with people that our life is perfect and no need for improvement or additional opportunities are irrelevant to our life.
