Do You Dare?

As we embark on the Possibility of doing something different, it is to our greater advantage to reinforce our potential for success. Take the time to reflect on the reality that you are here now. You've made it this far. You have weathered storms and seen much. Now, is it your time? Is it your time to plan, to learn, to act?

No risk, pay the cost. Know risk, reap the rewards. You would be well advised to give credence to this quote picked up from an introduction to Dr. Ben Carson's book,Take the Risk: Learning to Identify, Choose, and Live with Acceptable Risk. This is in my opinion very sound advice. Not only because of Dr. Carson's success at great risk do I say this. Dr. Carson and I have communicated at least on 3 occasions albeit ever so briefly. His impact was immense.

After evaluating risk and potential return, recognize that you have response ability (get it? thanks to the late Stephen Covey for that one). Should you go back to school, start that business, call that contact, take that chance? Step out on faith and go for it with sustained, enthusiastic rigor. YOU CHOOSE! No risk or KNOW risk. and remember... "When you pray for rain, carry your umbrella." Expectation can tip the scales in your favor.
