Don't Be Scared by Mik Cohen

Rewards come from taking risks - 
You take a risk when you get behind the wheel of your vehicle.
Risk being you could be in a fatal accident.
Reward being making it to your destination.
This is a simple, mindless, example - 




How about climbing a mountain ? 
Some people think it's a huge risk, but those climbing are in it for a multitude of rewards that, far, exceed the risk.

Investments are the most common risk, realistically.
Stocks, bonds, mutual funds, tax liens and the list goes on.

All of these risks have associated rewards - 
Ultimately, you won't win the lottery if you don't purchase a ticket (Unless someone gives you a ticket !).

So, my point is pretty simple:
Don't be scared to take some risks.
Be sure the risks you take are equal to the "potential" rewards AND that you can afford the loss, should that be the end result.

Pay attention to those around you, in your daily life.
You know those who are financially successful and those who want to be -

Spend some time with those who you most want to be like, relating to their success levels.
Also understand that success is personal to each of us.

Some people feel that success is driving around in expensive automobiles, eating at the finest restaurants and having preferred seating at high demand events.

Some people feel that success is internal happiness, being content with oneself and simply enjoying every moment of their life.

Some people feel..........
You get the point.

Ultimately, regardless of one's definition of success, it all involves some form of risk.

To summarize:
Identify your definition of success, find those who are living your definition of success and find a, respectful, way to spend time with them so you can learn.

There's an old saying that goes something like "Maybe a little bit of that person will rub off on you." -

Just remember - you don't have to be afraid of taking risk - it's NOT taking risks that you should fear.
