It's very important for people to know themselves and understand what their value system is, because if you don't know what your value system is, then you don't know what risks are worth taking and which ones are worth avoiding.
In my own personal life, God plays a great role in the risk, because I pray before I go into the operating room for every case, and I ask him to give me wisdom, to help me to know what to do - and not only for operating, but for everything.
Rather than reacting to every risk we hear and see, we should make an effort to discern which ones we can do something about.
If we set our priority "the removal of all risk", we'll soon have sterile, stagnant, and unstimulating learning environments.
'Why risk?' I responded. 'It should be, why not to risk?'
A lot of people simply don't realize their potential because they're just so risk adverse. They just don't want to take the risk.
It's a very wise thing for people to rationally sit down and look at what the risks are not only on a daily basis, on a weekly basis, on a monthly basis, on a yearly basis, on a lifetime basis, and then plan one's life accordingly.
If for you the most important thing is to make a lot of money, then you don't want to take a certain type of risk. If, on another hand, the most important thing to you is to make people around you have a more fulfilled life, then there is a different set of things that are important to you. Unless you really know that about yourself, you will never be able to appropriately assess risk.
