Taking A Risk



Most times the reason for our frustration is because we were too scared to take a risk. I don’t know where to start from but I will try and make a beginning. Life is a place filled with inevitable risk.Most workers these days are not satisfied with the work they are doing; not because they are over ambitious but because they are not doing what they have passion for.

Some of them try to change but they can’t because society has no budget or job opportunity for what they want to do; well here is one question, why can’t you take the risk to start it up as a business. See, talent or passion is not about the financial income alone but also about the inward satisfaction. Unfortunately, society has made it seem like if you are not successful, then you have no voice in the nation. This is the reason why the rich keep getting rich and the poor remain poor. The society is being over flooded with the highly respected occupation that is why there is high rate of unemployment and no certainty of undergraduates to get jobs when the finish yet they don’t want to take the risk to invest in the uncommon but productive aspect.  

Every human is so ambitious that they don’t like to be said no to. Well most times, the No is said to them because sometimes the people that tell them no don’t see the seriousness and passion in what you are proposing to do; you need to show them your commitment. Permit me to bring out a scenario in what I’m explaining; you have a friend who happens to be extremely close to you yet you have feelings or rather you are in love with her but you tend to fight this emotions because you are scared of losing her should in case she says no because maybe she doesn’t feel the same way but at the same time, there is no way you would know how she feels except you take the risk.

You tend to keep your feelings and watch another guy approach her and then she accepts then you being to feel so guilty and blame yourself for not taking the risk when you had the chance. Did you think your parents just met and started dating? No, your dad had to take the risk. And what makes you think that your mother is the first and only girl he expressed his feelings for? It is very rare for that to be the case. It is only relationships that circumstances brought them together that don’t end well.


Sometimes, parents are the reason for the in-satisfaction that their children face. Setting down profession careers before the child is even birthed and so when the child grows, he can’t do anything about it. It is true that sometimes children may not be able to choose what they want to do but it is not your duty to force to do what they don’t want to but it is your duty to guide them through what they want to do, sometimes this may call for tough decisions but still the most important thing is that you should try and understand you children. It is not all children that talks too much that are to be lawyers; they can also be teachers.

I hope I have haven’t made people misunderstand me or make children rebellious against their parent. Whatever your parents do to you, it is because they love you and want to discipline you to be great. All I’m just trying to say is learn to take a risk and know that it is not all no’s you should feel bad at because some are for the greater good.
