Transitional times are the riskiest. “Risk” is defined as the exposure to the chance of injury or loss. Unfortunately (or fortunately), if there is no risk, there is seldom a reward. Nothing ventured - nothing gained. Friedrich Von Schiller said it best when he said, “He that is over-cautious will accomplish little”. Asking the question, “Are you getting to your goal more effectively” doesn’t deny risk. That question takes risk into account. God gave us a neck to stick it out. If we are to get to our goal more effectively, we have to stick our neck out and make things happen or things will happen to us instead.
Try driving in a car and avoiding intersections or having certain careers without flying in a plane. You would find that the avoidance of risk costs much more than taking the risk in the first place.
