Risk taking is built every time you do it, if you run half a mile a few times per week than chances are that you’ll eventually feel more “comfortable” with the idea of running a full mile, and the more you run a full mile then running mile and a half doesn’t seem so bad. Do you see what I’m saying? If you take a small step every time, then you’ll condition your mind to take a bigger step. If you take a small risk every day then eventually you’ll be able to take bigger risks. Risk taking is a huge part in being a man. If you do not take risks then you will most likely become a still person. God wants you to be courageous, not a coward.
