Risks

I have a rule when talking about decisions. It's not a rule I invented. Actually the simple principle I try to keep is nicely presented in this Joyce Brothers' quote: "Accept that all of us can be hurt, that all of us can and surely will at times fail. Other vulnerabilities, like being embarrassed or risking love, can be terrifying too. I think we should follow a simple rule: if we can take the worst, take the risk." So, each time I need to make a decision I analyze if I can take the worst and if I can and if the best that might come is worth risking the worst then ... I might just do that! Cas nothing is worse than looking back and regret something you didn't do. Another very nice and true quote is what Mark Twain said: "Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things that you didn't do than by the ones you did do." I think the choice is between risking or regretting not risking. I don't know what to tell you. I can't tell anyone what to do or not do. I just know what I want to do and it's simple. Life is so short to not do things. I don't want you to think that I suggest throwing ourselves off from a cliff without a very resistant rope around us ... but sometimes we might wanna take the chances cas the outcome is so much worth it! In the end I am used to the bitter taste of regret and I would like to try a different flavor and I think you sleep better at night knowing that YOU did everything you could.
