We have all heard this being said many times before, BUT, how many of you actually do take risks in your life, and in your business?
If you look at some of the biggest names in business, and you actually read how they got to where they are today, you will notice they all have one thing in common… They take risks!
Now, I am not saying you should blindly go and risk everything in your business, or do very high risk deals!
CALCULATED risk is what I am advocating!
Simple stuff even, like emailing a big name Internet marketer, and proposing a JV.
There are TONS of low risk things people do not do for whatever reason, and they are the poorer for it!
I don’t know who said this first, but, I LIVE by this: "Do ONE thing EVERY day that scares you!". Again, I am not saying you should go skydiving, or mountain climbing! It can be as simple as phoning 1 of these top IM guys, or, singing in a Karaoke bar.
Now, look at THIS risk taker:
Originally built in 1901, this walkway now serves as an aproach to makinodromo, the famous climbing sector of El Chorro.

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won’t feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It’s not just in some of us; it’s in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
