We’ve heard many times that people have different appetites for risk. Some people, by nature
or through experience, have developed a stronger appetite for risk than others. The argument
can be made that someone either takes too much risk or not enough.

Regardless of how risky or risk averse we are, there are times we should take a risk. I was
recently in someone’s office and they had a wall hanging with a few simple words I
thought summed it up well. It read “You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take.” – Wayne
Gretzky. The encouragement is to take the shot!
