Playing it safe might not have hurt anyone, but it wouldn’t have inspired many, either.

If you don't risk anything, you risk even more.

We all have our fears. Anyone who says otherwise is probably scared of admitting it.

Taking risks to create the life you want is an act of trust. It means believing in your ability to create a new reality while you are in the process of creating it.

In order to fly you have to create space in the open air so that your wings can really spread out. It’s like a parachute. They only work from a high altitude. To fly you have to begin taking risks. If you don’t want to, maybe the best thing is just to give up, and keep walking forever.

I am not where I am because of luck. I am where I am because I took risks others weren’t willing to take. The world rewards the risk takers. It always has. It always will.
