The background of National Take a Chance Day

Who established today as National Take a risk Day is unclear, but we can all appreciate their willingness to take a risk with their holiday concept. It appears to have taken off!

Everyone has struggled with the decision to take a risk. Whether it be starting a new business, asking someone to the prom, or simply jumping off the platform while zip-lining. Every day, we encounter situations that technically qualify as “taking a chance.” Therefore, why not prepare for it?

Today is a great day to comprehend why we sometimes prevent ourselves from pursuing our ambitions and maximising our potential. More often than not, the probability of failure is lower than we anticipate. Recognising this and placing failure in the proper context is the best way to overcome the dread of taking risks.

So take some risks in life! Let’s get started immediately!
