1st Jun 2009 | Comments Off on Dealing With Risk in Career Change Dealing With Risk in Career Change Many of our Career shoppers are paralysed by the thought of taking a risk with their career. I recognise this only too well, and nonetheless need to fight a pure tendency to keep away from risk even when managing a business. So I was reminded this morning a couple of poem by a person referred to as Simon Reynolds, who lived, labored and died (aged 21) in the townships of South Africa. To laugh is to threat showing a fool. To weep is to risk appearing sentimental. To attain out for an additional is to risk involvement. To expose emotions is to threat exposing your true self. To place your concepts, your goals earlier than a crowd is to risk their loss. To love is to danger not being beloved in return. To stay is to risk dying. To hope is to risk despair. To try is to danger failure. But risks must be taken, because the greatest hazard in life is to threat nothing. Those who risk nothing, do nothing, achieve nothing, turn out to be nothing. They could avoid struggling and sorrow, but they cannot study, feel, change, develop, love, stay. Chained by their certitude they are a slave, they've forfeited their freedom. Only an individual who risks all that he cannot hold, to have no matter he can not lose, is truly free.
