Risk. There is no chance to evolve and progress without taking risk. It is the necessary element to self-development. It’s the key to living life to the fullest. Risk according to Webster, is the chance injury, loss, the failure of your expectations. But it is also the opportunity to learn and gain the fulfilment of your desires and dreams. When I think of risk or just what risk means, I feel like I might think of being afraid, but risk is a way to overcome what you fear.

You can be afraid to risk something or everything because you don’t want to lose what you have. Because you are afraid you may fail or think you can’t handle it or whatever the chase. You spend so much energy and time trying to keep what you have instead of progressing into something new.

Everything changes, nothing stays the same forever. Nothing. From business to personal, everything in between. I realize that you can’t be afraid. A lot of us aren’t all the way satisfied, but are scared to lose security and what we do have.

The number one thing I got to remind myself sometimes, is that life is here not to survive, but to live it up, to expand, to grow. When you settle for what’s familiar, or safe, is because we forget that God is our security. You can try find security in people, in jobs, or anything materialistic but there is no point, because everything is designed to change…. including you!

Most people who have successfully taken risks and succeeded, have failed too. But the point is, you learn from every lesson, you learn from every risk.

Change is always exciting. The world is designed for change. Don’t ever be afraid to take risks.
