Deciding to take a risk is one of the most critical decisions you can make. Faced with the decision to go beyond your comfort zone - often out of the 'familiar uncomfortable' and into the 'unfamiliar unknown' - requires a huge amount of trust in self and trust in the Universe.
Risk, by definition, means the outcome you want is not assured. But the action of taking a risk is very faith-based, because it embodies the understanding that you will get what you need, even if it is not what you want.
Do not confuse the action of taking a risk with acting risky. Engaging in behaviors that are potentially hurtful or harmful to you or others is not the same thing as believing in yourself enough to act on your sense of truth. The difference between the two is integrity.
Taking a risk is the willingness to be vulnerable, whether in seeking a job, reaching out to someone in a relationship, or making a move. It is rooted in right action for you. It dispels fear, because it embraces your fears when you commit to attempt something without promises or finite outcome.
Today, think about those things in your heart that you have contemplated doing but have not, out of a sense of fear of what could happen, and embrace the risk, letting go of the need to control the outcome.
Risk and trust go hand-in-hand. When you trust self and have faith that the best possible outcome is assured, you discover there really is no 'risk' to you, only right action.
