Take a risk that didn’t work? Like hiring a home health aide—who you care recipient hated? Or, asking your sister to help out—only to be shot down?
After taking a risk that just doesn’t work out they way you hoped, you may feel foolish, or silly, or naïve.
Keep in mind what’s important: You stepped out of your comfort zone in order to create what you wanted. Creating what you want only happens with risk. Sometime the risk works, sometimes it doesn’t. The result isn’t reflective of who you are. But the effort—and its inherent courage—is.
Your risks will pay off—just like all your good work will.
