The worst piece of advice that I ever got was playing it safe and this came from everybody around all the people closest to me were telling me that I should just be careful and make sure that I don't get into trouble. Well guess what trouble is a good thing? You should be seeking out the risk in your life because here's how risky life is. There is a guarantee that you will not get out of this life a lot. So now that you know that at the end of this you're gonna die. Anyway, you might as well play on. All out don't leave anything on the table because at the end of the day you'll just end up with regret and you don't want to sit on your deathbed and say I could have done more you want to die empty and live Full House the whole play it safe mentality is based on trying to live a comfortable life trying to just kind of be okay, not even anything spectacular just average and how many people actually want to live an average life. This is terrible advice if you want to actually experience something if you will. Actually have some fun average and safety is not going to fulfill those needs when I started taking risks in my life. Yes. I started losing and some things went wrong. But here's the thing. It's better to fail over and over again at something that you love to do then to win at something that you hate to do because although you might not enjoy the feet it sure beats winning in the wrong direction when you win at something you don't like to do you end up miserable. Anyway, at least if you fail at something that you really enjoy your still happy and you're making progress and that's the problem people think that failing at building your business are failing at a relationship or failing at anything is some kind of traumatic experience that's going to haunt you for the rest of your life when in all reality. It's the best lesson that you can get even better than studying. The book is actually having a real life experience and seeing that hey this works and this doesn't work and you might have to go through a lot of those doesn't work type of experiences until you actually hit some gold. But if you never risk you'll never gain So putting yourself through an experience that you don't enjoy just so that you can have a certificate at the end or make somebody else proud as not really that rewarding at the end of your life. You're going to regret all the people pleasing that you did trying to make everybody else happy and not really following your heart. So be brave enough say no and say yes to you say yes to your dream your passion whatever it is that you want to pursue and stop listening to trying to play it safe because no matter how safe you try to Say you're going to end up dead sure as everybody else will and stop trying to play it safe because you're going to end up dead at the end of your life just to sure as everybody else. Will sometimes that's the best reminder. You got to keep in mind that you going to die eventually. If you don't remember that you can easily get caught up and living life as if you have forever as if you have eternity, but you don't have eternity your dreams are fading away as you're wasting your time doing something that you don't want to do. So take that risk take that leap. Stop playing it safe and you're To have a much more fulfilling experience, even if you fail you'll enjoy life. You always have to keep in mind whoever you're taking advice from. Would you want to trade places with them? Would you want to actually live their life a lot of the people that promote safety and comfort their living a pretty tragic and miserable life. Do you want that? Do you actually want to experience that? Is that something that you would like if you want extraordinary you got to get around extraordinary and listen to extraordinary and extraordinary does not say play it safe. Remember most people are giving you advice based on what they feel they can achieve based on their experiences and based on what they're going through and when you realize that you'll realize that your potential and your dreams and your vision for your life is going to be entirely different to what they're trying to put on you. So for some people that play it safe mentality works great, but for people that actually want to be extraordinary and live an amazing life. It's not going to work very well at all. You have to know who you are. Who are you? What are you going after? What is your dream? And in your dream do you get the luxury of playing it safe or do you have to go all out work hard every single day and take risks and jump take the leap of faith and actually believe that you can do it.

I share with you the worst advice that could ever be given to you!

After all, they only want the best for us. Still, the ‘play it safe’ advice is the most common one and also the worst piece of advice you can get. By the time you’re done reading you’ll know why. First things first. What does it mean to ‘play it safe’? Obviously, no one close to you wants your harm or to see you get in trouble. So, the easiest way to prevent you from experiencing failure is to make you believe that keeping trouble at bay is your best solution. The thing is that if you want a life filled with experience, success and free of regrets, then you have to do the exact opposite. TROUBLE IS GOOD. Look at it this way; nobody lives forever. And you probably don’t want your last thought to be ‘I could have done more’. So how do you go about it? Well, that depends on what kind of life you want to live. The whole ‘play it safe’ state of mind is a general rule to live by for those who are not after anything big. Those people are happy with a comfortable life, nothing spectacular. Are you that type of person? Truth be told, most out there are, but if you kept reading so far, then you’re probably not. If you want to live with excitement and genuine happiness that goes into anything you do, then safety is not something you want to carry all over around with you. Taking risks is an indispensable part of succeeding in your life. Does that mean that every risk you take is going to be a win for you? No! Of course not. Because failure is also in the game. Still, it’s far better to fail over and over doing something you love than to succeed doing something you hate. Sure, nobody likes defeat. But you’d be surprised to know that getting beat up in life doing something you truly enjoy gives you a sense of fulfilment – not to mention that you’re still making progress – whereas succeeding in areas that are within your ‘safe zone’ will leave you with that same feeling of misery and emptiness that you had in the first place. Besides, what does failing mean after all? Most people think that failing in any aspect of their lives, for instance a relationship, is a traumatic and haunting experience. In reality it’s the best lesson you can get. Take a minute to think about it and ask yourself. What is better? Reading about something in a book, or experiencing it in real life? The verdict: Don’t lower the level of your life to stay safe and satisfy others. Don’t study to make your parents proud, if it’s not something that will make you proud above all. In other words, don’t try to make others happy at the cost of your own happiness. Keep in mind that life is not forever, so stop living like you’ve got all eternity. Oh, and next time you consider taking advice from someone, take a moment first to put yourself in their shoes and see if you would trade places with them. If not, then it’s probably best to say ‘Thank you, but no thank you’!
