Creative Pursuits

Erica Jong said, “If you don’t risk anything, you risk more”. To me this means that if you don't risk it to get the biscuit, you'll never even get the chance get that biscuit. If you always think about what might go wrong in a situation instead of what might go right, the paranoia might cause you to lose the most fulfilling enjoyment in life, the journey it'self. I watched a movie where a lady was scared to leave her appartment, what a boring movie but it had good lessons to be learned. She knew she was miserable and unhappy but still continued to stay confined inside her apartment because of the risks of the outside world. Later on after being pushed multiple times to go outside by her neighbour she luckily realizes that the risks of the outside world are worth enduring in order to do something she liked or loved. In my opinion if you want to succeed with anything you need to sacrifice, be it your money, time, body, love, or anything else it may be. I believe what you put into the world puts back into you, be it good or bad.
