We've become a country that is often risk averse. That's not the way to succeed.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I view risk-aversion as crippling America in many ways.
We need to risk, we need to dare to risk and fail greatly because that's the only way we grow.
If we don't succeed we run the risk of failure.
If we don't succeed, we run the risk of failure.
People need to learn to live with more risk.
It's easy to walk away from risk, and you don't actually have to face it. Success is based upon overcoming the inherent risk you can't manage your way out of.
If we become one of those societies that attack success, why not come as certain there will be a lot less success? And that's not who we are.
Are we still a country that takes risks, that innovates, that believes anything is possible? Or are we a country that is resigned to whatever liberty the government decides to dish out?
And people who take risk intelligently can usually actually make a lot more progress than people who don't.
Despite what some would have us believe, success is not built on resentment and fear.
