Risk is unavoidable

By changing, redesigning, and reducing your ideas to avoid risks and failure, you've already failed.

There is ALWAYS risk

By designing your ideas to avoid risk and escape failure, you’re:

• Directing energy to what you don’t want instead of what you do want

• Focussing on the naysayers and knockers too much

• Limiting your options through fear

• So outcome focussed, you may be putting the production experience and your connection with the work in jeopardy

• Not paying attention to discovery

• Overthinking

• Inviting exhaustion into the development and creation process

• Taking things way too seriously

• Designing your career or creativity with the mythical safe bet and low hanging fruit as your template

• Never going to know what you’re truly capable of
