Study this Book of Instruction continually. Meditate on it day and night so you will be sure to obey everything written in it. Only then will you prosper and succeed in all you do. (Joshua 1:8)
Welcome once again to Let's Talk where we are taking a look at the thirty-one major reasons for failure. Our text of study is "Think and Grow Rich" by Napoleon Hill.
Today we will consider the sixteenth major cause for failure, over cautiousness. We've all heard no risk, no reward. What this means is there will be risks involved in reaching this destination called success. You must be willing to take some risks, responsibly of course, or you will have to get what's given to you in life.
Napoleon Hill says it like this, "The person who takes no chances generally has to take whatever is left when others are through choosing." We should be responsible in our decision making. But, you do not have to have all the answers to every scenario and a solution for every problem that may arise before you take action. This is an extreme!
On the other end of that spectrum lies under-caution. It too is an extreme. We must learn to take healthy risks and be flexible enough to handle obstacles when and/or if they occur. Life itself is full of chance. Handle these chances with caution, not over-caution or under-caution, but healthy caution and you will succeed.
Let's take advantage of another chance to begin in 2010. Success awaits you. It's at the end of the path that we must travel. The streets along that path are Failure Blvd., Caution Trail, Emotion Ave., and Victory Circle. We must follow our map, travel these roads, and learn lessons along the way to arrive at our residence, 1825 Success Way.
That's all for this issue of Let's Talk. Until tomorrow, ponder this question with me. How can choosing the wrong associates in business cause our failure? I welcome your feedback. Please leave me any comments and/or questions and let me know what’s on your mind. If you know anyone who would benefit from this information, please share this site with them.
Until next time,
God Bless
