plan for the future each day.
Take Risks
The biggest risk is not taking risks. If you
venture nothing, you win nothing.
"Security is mostly a superstition. It
does not exist in nature, nor do the children of men as a whole experience
it. Avoiding danger is no safer in the long run than outright exposure. Life
is either a daring adventure or nothing," says Helen Keller...
