If you are risk averse, it is not for you. Most startups succeed because, from the early days, the founders, team, and investors all took a plunge. They could have failed too. It’s a hedge and going against the odds that drives the crazy ones.
The same applies to relationships, people fall in love and live happily going against social dictates of caste, nationality, age, skin color, and ethnicity. It’s like riding against the tide with everyone unaccepting it.
Our life is limited and we have every moment to live. What matters is building and living those moments at own without caring about the world. It is a risk worth taking for oneself.
If Ford had listened to others, he would have built a better. Bullock cart, not a car.
