"It is better to be a Lion one day than to be a Sheep all your life"

Let's compare a Lion to a Sheep and you will understand better. A Lion is a bold, fearless and determined animal ready to kill its prey at any time. While a Sheep is a timid and fearful animal and that is why they are always prey to the Lion.

If you dare for nothing, you need hope for nothing and expect nothing. Everyone has a chance to prove himself but some don't believe in taking chances. Being destined for greatness requires that you take risk and confronts great hazards.

"If you spend your life waiting for the storm, you will never enjoy sunshine. No one reaches the top without daring"

Most people fail to understand why they need to take risk and that is why Chuck Yeager explained, You don't concentrate on risk, you concentrate on result. No risk is too great to prevent the necessary job from being done.

if truly you want to be successful, then take risk. Enough is enough, don't be a sheep anymore, BE A LION.

"The world is a book and those who don't take risk read only one page"

Imagine you have a book and everyday, you read only one page, how boring will that be? You will agree with me that you never get to know how interesting the book is. This is an illustration of a life without risk. If in this life, you have never been scared, afraid, embarrassed, ridiculed, disappointed, hurt or under pressure, it means you have never taken any risk.

Most Christians feel that since they have Christ, they don't have to take risk but see what Tommy Barnett said;
"Many people feel that they are really working by faith when there is no risk, but the truth is, the longer you walk with God, the greater the risk, you take".

Dying on the cross was a risk that Jesus Christ had to take. David is another example of a risk taker. He took the risk when he came out to challenge Goliath. Abraham, Jacob, Moses, Gideon, Joshua, Daniel and others were all examples of risk takers.

Success is sweet but it takes risk to achieve it. Stop this play it safe mentality, play to lose. Be willing to take risk. Life truly is a risk, to advance in life, we need to take risk that we are not taking. Life truly is a risk and only the brave made headway.

STOP THIS PLAY IT SAFE MENTALITY, PLAY TO LOSE, TAKE THAT RISK.
