Show Notes

In order for you, the entrepreneur, to expand your business, you need to get comfortable with taking risks, but, taking risks isn’t about making ad hoc decisions, it’s about educating yourself, mitigating the downside, making a decision to proceed or not, and then, executing as flawlessly as possible.

Taking risks is at the heart of building a thriving business, and in creating wealth. 

These risks taken in business, not just in running your business, but, in your investments as well, will dictate how successful you ultimately become.

So how do you know when and how to take risk?

The bigger the bet you can take, the more you compound your success.  —–>
