Is Security Safe?

Risk taking is the only way you'll get security. If you seek security, you're taking the biggest risk of all.

There was a very cautious man.
He rarely laughed, he never cried,
He never won, he never tried.
He rarely laughed, he never played,
He rarely talked, he never prayed.
Then one day he passed away,
His insurance was denied.
They claimed because he never lived, he never really died.

You never want to seek security, because risk-taking is security making.

-Dr. Dennis Waitely
2004 Jim Rohn Leadership Conference

If you are never able to afford risk, how will you ever get ahead? Times have changed, and safe is just not secure anymore. The bigger the risk, the bigger the reward. Invest in risk. Start small, to see little return, and keep increasing. You might say, "The bigger risk, the bigger potential loss." However, I say to you, "learned risk is a good risk." Throwing dice out on the craps table not understanding the game may not be that smart. But if you know the odds, what numbers can win, and know how to win when usually the dice says you lose, the greater your odds of winning. Win by throwing the dice with wisdom behind it. That's success. That's true security.
