Risks are at the center of every courageous action, and people who realize their potential make risk-taking routine.
I’m issuing a risk-a-day challenge to help you settle into discomfort, navigate within uncertainty, and evaluate outcomes in low-stakes environments.
To be clear, this challenge isn’t about reckless risk-taking done out of eagerness for attention. No licking toilets or jumping from a three-story building. It’s about intentionally taking one, small risk a day to help you check your fear and move forward on the path to doing you.
Sign up below by April 12 to join and be eligible to win great prizes.
Take one risk each day of the challenge from Monday, April 13 – Sunday, April 19.
