A middle aged entreprenuer, X, who own a franchise restaurant in DC.

Me: How were you able to take such a risk ?

X : Let me ask you a question. How do you commute to work?

Me : I Drive.

X : You know that there is a 5% chance of you meeting with an accident and 55% if you were texting and driving.

Me : Yes. Whats up with that?

X : You drove to work. Didn’t sat at home, afraid of accidents. I’ve done the same. Drove my self to the destination.

We all take risks, whether we acknowledge it or not. Better risk for things we love.
