some risks are worth it though. For example, love is a huge risk. I made the risk of letting someone in and it has paid off. I have a loving wife and a beautiful daughter now. We are all risk takers just be leaving the house. We have no control over our lives. It is just the level of risk taken that is different. Great post.  |

I'm a huge risk taker...but only about certain things.
I probably wouldn't sky dive or anything...
but I make a lot of impulsive decisions that can be seen as "risky". If I want something, I want it right then and there, so I usually buy something that I don't need that isn't a good decision or follow through with something that isn't safe.  |

Depends on the risk. I took a risk of quitting my job, and it worked out for the best.  |

I am always very cautious before taking risks. One should always think about something before they take a risk. I will only take them after I have looked at all sides of it first. Good post RA!! *Hugs* :)  |

Good point Kurt! I agree with you, risks like that are worth every penny! True, some things we can control, and others we cannot.  |

Rach, that is part of living life. It is just good to be cautious of what may happen, and to be aware of things. I know I can be bad at impulse buying!! And then its like, why did I do that? Live and learn.. well.. until the next impulsive buy. Trust your gut, and live life to its fullest!  |

PsyGuy that is a good risk, because it worked out for you in the end. I guess thats the thing, you never can quite tell what the outcome may be.  |

Hangman, that is how I am too. I take my time. I am trying not to always be like that, and have jumped into things that I would not normally do. It's scary, yet thrilling.. although you won't see me bungee jumping any day now. :)  |

I am cautious sometimes...I think somethings are worth taking risks for even racing and such, the only thing I try not to take risks is in love, but that hasn't work so I guess i better start there too...  |

Karlita, I suppose in a way, every risk can have good intentions put behind it, and can be good for a person. I found that love was the hard thing for me to take a risk, but once I did.. never looked back.  |

I didn't used to be, because whenever I did take a risk it would turn out badly...but, I've loosened up a little...not sure about results yet  |

I am both very cautious and a big risk taker. But then I am an optimistic pessimist too. When it comes to physical safety, I am extremely cautious. But then I think it would be so fun to sky dive or maybe even bungee jump. I would need statistics though. In our married life, we have quit really good paying jobs several times to start our own business's or move from Arizona to Washington. That move should have been a scary risk, since we also sold our beautiful home as well. But we found it exciting to follow our dreams and it has worked out tremendously for us.  |

I very rarely venture outside my comfort zone.. yes, I can be adventurous, but I'm not much of what you'd call a "risk-taker".. especially if it could result in me or a loved one dying.  |

I used to be more of a risk taker when we didnt have our kids, but now they are here...I just dont have the time, energy OR the MONEY! Risk for me now...would be like skiing - which I never have... I used to ride a motorcycle - yes as me as the driver, but I never had thoughts of racing anyone. My kids are TOO important! How are you?!?!?! Any babies yet??  |

Illy, its like once you start a family, and especially have kids, why would you want to risk your life? They need you!! I had no idea you used to ride a motorcycle, wow woman!!! Hehe. I am doing well sweetie, keeping myself "out of trouble". No babies yet!!!! :p One day perhaps! ;)  |

i have never really been a risk taker.. i naturally have bad luck, so taking risks isn't the best thing to do... plus i like security i always have.. even more now that i have a baby, i will never let myself get down to my last few diapers, never allow her to get to less than a quarter can of formula becaue if all hell breaks loose tomorrow.. i want to know that i atleast have some things to depend on (weather it be job security, always having food in the house, diapers, financial, life)  |
