You Just Have To Roll The Dice

Risk.
we encounter risks everyday and every minute.while we're driving, playing sports or even sleeping.we might encounter risks.
risk can come in different ways.either it comes to you unexpectedly or you yourself go and find that risks.we define risk as something that will definitely gives us problems.and most of the time we try to avoid those risks as much as we can.but do we realize that some risks that we avoid may result in our own unproductiveness?
i don't know how to explain it.but i deeply feels that this is true.
for example,in football.football nowadays rely on financial power to triumph over other teams or clubs.but then, Sir Alex Ferguson who i bet most of us know as the manager of a famous and most succesful team in the world : Manchester United.
so,instead of using big splash of cash to buy star players to improve his squad, he decided to put a gamble on his youth players from the manchester academy.this was famously done some years ago when he introduced the likes of Beckham, Giggs, Gary and Phil Neville and some others.he gambled on the future of the club and maybe the future of his own job but then the risk from the gamble proved to be worth it.he is now the most succesfull and most celebrated manager in the english football.as proof he guided manchester united to their 19th league title.all that he has done with taking a little bit of risk.

apart from that.

i have just watched a movie at the cinema entitled PAUL.its about an alien trying to get home to his planet.in his efforts to get home, he stumbled upon two human sci-fi geeks.both the geeks promised to help paul on his quest and along the way they went through many obstacles.
i don't want to reveal anymore about the movie because it might be a spoiler to anyone who wants to watch the movie.
in the end, before paul were able to get home, one of the geeks had a problem.paul has a special ability that he can use to help others.right at that moment paul had to make a choice between to help his friend or not.
he decided to help the human although using the special ability would endanger his own life and eveything he had done to get home until then would be a waste.but he did it anyways.
this movie shows a great value about friendships and about taking risks in life.
the words that paul said in the movie that really gripped myself hard was :
"sometimes you just have to roll the dice"
i found paul's words are quite inspiring.don't you?
this particular dialogue of paul teaches us to be a risk taker.sometimes risks comes at you when you are unprepared.you just dont have the time to prepare for it.then what would you do?you just have to make a decision.take the risk if you could.
because sometimes behind the risks that we take lies hidden a great success.  :)
