Blog Entry 12 August 2013 Taking Risks

Always dream and shoot higher than you know you can do. Don’t bother just to do better than your contemporaries or predecessors. Try to be better than yourself. William Faulkner.

If you have never been scared or embarrassed or failed at anything it means you haven’t taken any chances. Happiness and the feeling of being alive comes from putting yourself out there, taking a risk for something you really care about.

The future belongs to the risk takers. They are the doers, the producers, inventing and leading markets. They advance society and in so doing enrich their own lives and others.
