I need to learn how to take risks. I think they are needed to get anywhere worth getting to. The destination is much sweeter when it is worked hard for. I've avoided taking risks for most of my life due to the fear of failure. I must not let that fear keep me stagnant. I have so many dreams and goals, and the lack of healthy risk taking isn't going to let me reach them. I must not be afraid anymore. I need to keep taking risks until failure is meaningless except for a sign to get back up and keep on trying.
