Someone says "Take Risk in your Life. If You Win, you can lead. If you loss you can guide." Life is a risk and without taking risks we have no life.
Risk distinguishes the doers from the dreamers. In order to achieve anything in life we have to take positive, calculated risks. Nothing can be achieved without risk and apart from this obvious outcome, there are other numerous benefits to taking risks.
Here are just Seven Benefits to Taking Risks
1. It exposes you to new opportunities
If you keep doing the same things every day, you’ll never find an exciting opportunity knocking at your door. To achieve your life’s goals, you need to constantly do different things and do things differently. This involves taking risks. Calculated risks can turn out to be positive for the company in the future.
2. It teaches you important lessons
When you make mistakes, you learn from them. Though it’s good to observe others and learn from their experiences, it’s equally important to make your own mistakes and take away key lessons from them. Don’t be afraid to fail. Taking a risk means that there are chances you’ll succeed. So go ahead, take risks and make the most of them.
3. Reduces the hold fear has over us
The greatest enemy of risk is fear or resistance. Often we fear something so much that we are not willing to overcome that resistance and fear to step out. When we do take a risk it reduces the strangle hold that fear has over us and our natural courage is strengthened. We are able to get into action instead of being like a deer trapped in the glare of oncoming traffic headlights.

4. It makes you more confident
Taking risks teaches you to trust yourself and have belief in your abilities and instincts. You learn how to fight hard and make it through tough situations, and this eventually improves your confidence.
5. It encourages you to chase your dreams
We all have dreams that we’d like to achieve, but think they’re too far-fetched to go after them. If you’re willing to take risks, you’re giving yourself the chance to achieve these so-called far-fetched dreams. Sure, you might fail, but at least you’d have given it your best shot.
6. Leads to rewards
We all know people who seem to be so lucky and great things “just happen” for them. If you look carefully things are not just happening for them, they are taking risks and reaping the rewards. If you want to achieve any dream, regardless of how large or how small you always have to take a risk.
7. It helps you shine
People who never showed faith in you and your abilities get to see your growth. They’ll regret doubting you in the past, and this helps open up a lot of doors that may not have been accessible before. After seeing you take risks to achieve your targets effectively, they’re more likely to put their faith in you and introduce you to newer opportunities.
If you do not take risk, you will always work for someone who does.
