Taking Risks

Note: For the next 21 days till July 3, I am going to blog about something or another every day. My blogs may not be large but it will be there every day.

Here is the quote which inspires this post: 

To love is to risk not being loved in return. To hope is to risk pain. To try is to risk failure, but risk must be taken because the greatest hazard in life is to risk nothing.

What will happen if we never risk anything:

  • If Narayan Murthy did not risk his wife's jewellery and his personal possessions, there would have been no Infosys!
  • If James Wright did not risk his life in his attempts to fly, we would never have flown!
  • If an anonymous man in the past did not risk playing with fire, we might not have survived as a race!
  • If a new-born child does not risk opening her eyes, she would never have known the beauty of the world!
  • If you never risked standing up as a child; you would not have walked today!

So go out, take the risk and live the dream that you dreamt off. 
What is the worst that will happen? 
You might fail! 
But you will never have the regret of not trying!

    Try everything atleast once in life.
    So that we don't have any regrets that we missed out on a few things when our time comes. :P
