Take a Smart Risk

Imagine that you are in a familiar room with the lights off.  Although ordinarily you know your way around, the darkness makes it difficult to navigate and to find your way out. You take a deep breath, blink your eyes, and rely on memory, logic, and intuition to chart a path to the door that marks your exit.

Maneuvering through a somewhat uncertain path using both your head and your heart for guidance is the key to advancing.  Through calculated steps based on logic and trust, you are able to seize the opportunity on the other side of the door.

Accomplished people take Smart Risks by analyzing the possible outcomes of their actions, looking at the time of a goal, weighing it with their other priorities, and trusting their intuition about the "rightness" of taking a risk.  When these factors line up in a positive way, successful people take the leap.

What smart risk do you know you need to take that you may have been putting off? Courageously take a leap!
