While risk can be scary, to me it is the essence of freedom. The only way to limit risk is to limit freedom. And, unfortunately, all too often people are willing to give away freedom in exchange for safety, even if that safety equals a poor way of living.
Plan like you will live forever. Live like you will die tonight. Yesterdays are dead. Tomorrow is not guaranteed and one day, I shall be right. Fight for your happiness. It's the only thing worth fighting for. The great Aristotle said those immortal words, “Happiness is the meaning and the purpose of life, the whole aim and end of human existence.” May you find yours.

don't quit
Stick to the fight
when at your hardest hit
its when things seem worse
That you must never quit
when at your hardest hit

Howard Roark on work
But you see, I have, let's say, sixty years to live. Most of that time will be spent working. I've chosen the work I want to do. If I find no joy in it, then I'm only condemning myself to sixty years of torture. And I can find the joy only if I do my work in the best way possible to me. But the best is a matter of standards--and I set my own standards. I inherit nothing. I stand at the end of no tradition. I may, perhaps, stand at the beginning of one."
What I really want is....
Freedom
I want to be free
One of the greatest goals of a man's life should be freedom.
Freedom to act on his own free will and do what he deeply feels is right. A few, only a few men of courage find it. They walk down roads no body wants to walk on because there are risks involved. They risk their life for their freedom. They either get it or die. And the rest of the world appears to live superficially. A fake existence.
