she focused on what she had. “ Do I want to spend the rest of my life
wallowing for misery, or do I want to rise above what has happened and pursue my dreams”

RIDICULOUS RULES FOR RISK MANAGEMENT
“Pearls don’t lie on the seashore. If you want one, you must dive for it.” Nick Vujicic- the proud creator of Ridiculous Rules. “Every breathing person on the planet should be
committed to doing something ridiculous at least once a day..”
We easily get trapped in the ‘someday’ mentality
The biggest risk of YOUR life?
“Security is mostly a superstition. Life is either a daring adventure or nothing”-Helen Keller
Ridiculous Rules for managing risks
1. Test the waterso “No one tests the depth of the river
with both feet”
2. Go with what you knowo Do your homework
3. Check the timer You would not want to start a ice cream
business in the dead of the winter Write down something in the night;
read it in the morning; see the difference!
4. Get a second opinion Emotions may be outrunning; get a
mentor before entering the tricky territory
5. Prepare for the unseen consequences o Companies create a ‘buffer.’
“Take risks; if you win, you will be happy; if you lose, you will be wise.”
FYI.. Nick and his wife Kanae Miyahara
NEVER STOP BELIEVING
IN YOURSELF!
