The Trick Is To Risk It

The Trick is to Risk it

Daily Success Motivation and Positive Thinking

What is risk? Webster's Dictionary defines risk as the chance of loss. The challenge of success is the risk or number of risks that lay before us as we reach for our dreams of success. What risks are you facing? Are you even facing your risks?

Let me share with you some risks that I'm facing. I'm facing the risk of failure and ridicule as I continue to reach for my dream of public speaking in the area of success motivation. I'm risking financial challenge as I pursue a couple of other entreprenuerial endeavors I have as part of my plan to increase my own personal success.

I would be willing to bet that the greatest risk facing us all and the one with which we must confront and overcome is the fear of the unknown.

For many of us it is the fear of not knowing how it will turn out that breeds dread. But if we think about it there are no guarantees in this life. We wake up each day not know what that day will actually bring yet we go about our duties anyway.

However we find ourselves able to this because we find comfort in the familiar tasks that we do day in and day out. We go to the same job, do the same things and socialize with the same group of family and friends.

The Trick is to Risk it

The real trick is the risk it. To risk something by attempting something more is the challenge I offer you today. Yes, there is predictability in doing the same things everyday. While we cannot truly predict exactly what will happen each day, we do find comfort in the control we feel when we do the things that don't threaten our sense of security.

"He who accomplishes little must sacrifice little; he who would achieve much must sacrifice much..." Richard M. DeVos

My friend, are you willing to lose some confort in order to experience new success today? What is your motivation in playing it safe? What risk are you trying to avoid? Playing it safe only leads to misery and unhappiness as your greatness and true potential fight you from within in an attempt make themselves known to the world.

Oh I know the struggle between the mundane and the magnificent. If you are struggling because you have this urge to burst forth and do something great, become someone different or achieve something fresh and new then you must be willing to take the risk no matter what your risk is. Why? Because...

On The Other Side Of Risk Is Your Dream Fulfilled

"Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. Begin it now!" Goethe

You will never know what you could have really achieved if you don't take that first step to making your dreams happen. You must take the first step. You dreams and your success are on the other side of your fear. Your motivation must be to reach and stretch yourself beyond your current comfort zone and achieve more.

To achieve more you have to risk more. When you risk more, you become more. Your life will never be the same. If you are in a rut and desperately want change in your life the real trick is the risk it. This is no real trick at all actually. The reality is that change is the result of specific actions. I believe you can change your life right now by taking that first step.

What step much you now take? What risk must you accept? What success are you willing to pursue?

Your change is one thought away. Act today and never be the same!

God Bless,
