Taking risks has never been a natural thing for me. As a child I'd been taught to play it safe. But my years have been filled with all kinds of risky decisions. Not careless risk, but heavy and calculated decisions involving how I will best use my resources, time and how much of myself I will give to others. I've found the longer I live the more risk opportunity lies before me. Sometimes I hate it. But I have to admit that each precarious step I take brings more confidence about going higher and farther.
I'm determined to go for the BEST in 2011. How about you?
"No noble thing can be done without risks." Michel de Montaigne
"Whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things." The Apostle Paul, written during his Roman imprisonment.
