It is said that growth happens outside of the comfort zone. Challenges and difficulties are, no doubt, a struggle. But that’s what they’re supposed to be. Swords cannot be made without the blacksmith’s hammer striking it. Expecting that life is going to be easy will only lead to endless disappointment. While playing it safe can feel like somewhat o...
There’s a simple rule in investing. The lower you invest, the lower your returns. But the higher you invest, the higher your returns. The difference between the two is a matter of having a large enough risk appetite (and, of course, how much you have). If people could earn a good amount of money on low investment, then the law of supply and demand ...
There’s a reason why people want to play it safe: they don’t want to get called to the office. But when an opportunity presents itself, sometimes you just need to go for it. You aren’t afraid to ruffle a few feathers if it means getting what you want. There is, of course, a difference between deviating from a set of protocols and taking advantage o...
You can’t think your way to success. When all the goals are set and plans are in place, there’s only one thing left to do: go for it. There are people that, when an opportunity presents itself, shrink in self-doubt. It paralyzes them, and they’re left to watch the opportunity sail by. They grow old, forever regretting the life that they could’ve li...
Knowing what you want is the first step in taking action. It gives direction and motivation. The problem is that most people don’t know what they want in life. They spend all their years wondering and considering, and they spend too little actually doing. Without understanding what you want, the risks will be a waste of valuable resources. Since yo...
When we’re faced with a large decision in our lives — buying a house, changing career, migrating to another country, pursuing a different area of study — our guts always voices its opinion, whether we like it or not. Often, our gut and intuition know far more than our rational minds. Our intuition comes from the deepest part of our identity. It isn...
Sometimes there’s really only one way to see if something is going to work: you’ve got to test it out. While curiosity comes naturally to all of us, you’re one that’s willing to act on it. You pursue your questions in search of an answer. Asking questions, while innocent, could be risky. Think of an investigative journalist doing research on a shad...
It’s said that, in his attempt to create the lightbulb, Thomas Edison failed about 10,000 times. His response to that? “I’ve successfully found 10,000 ways that will not work.” It’s inherent in every risk that failure is a likely outcome. Failures can discourage us from pursuing our dreams if we’re not careful about them. If we view it as something...
It’s an unwritten rule not to meddle with the status quo. People don’t want to shake up the system too much or else they’ll be outcasted. But the core idea of innovation is about disrupting the status quo. Having the audacity to innovate takes a risky spirit — one that you have. You identify with what Steve Jobs once said, “It’s those that are craz...
Making decisions can be difficult. It means having to commit to our own choices, and we have to take responsibility for it if it doesn’t turn out the way that we hoped it would. Too many people make decisions and then let self-doubt and regret creep in and ruin their choices. But not you. When you’ve made your choice, you stick by it. Sure, you may...
