    About this ebook

    Is life barren of risk? A majority of the human population will surely disagree. The entire flora and fauna on earth are susceptible to big risk elements regardless of shapes and sizes.
    So are human activities in particular. A commuter risks being hit by an onrushing vehicle on a highway; a student is at risk of failing in the examination and also an entrepreneur is surrounded by a barrage of big risk factors that might lead to losing the entire capital invested. The crux of the matter is the degree of risks. The magnitude is relative and varies from individual to individual.
    The million-dollar question is, can risk be foiled by any chance?
    It is like ceasing to exist, to say the least. A better option would be to stop thinking too much about it and take things as they come. Several times, failure comes naturally, but even that is beneficial too as an individual is enriched by bitter experiences and can take guard against any future setback by adopting sufficient preventive measures.

      Preface

      Is life barren of risk? A majority of the human population will surely disagree. The entire flora and fauna on earth are susceptible to big risk elements regardless of shapes and sizes. So are human activities in particular. A commuter risks being hit by an onrushing vehicle on a highway; a student is at risk of failing in the examination and also an entrepreneur is surrounded by a barrage of big risk factors that might lead to losing the entire capital invested. The crux of the matter is the degree of risks. The magnitude is relative and varies from individual to individual.

      The million-dollar question is, can risk be foiled by any chance? It is like ceasing to exist, to say the least. A better option would be to stop thinking too much about it and take things as they come. Several times, failure comes naturally, but even that is beneficial too as an individual is enriched by bitter experiences and can take guard against any future setback by adopting sufficient preventive measures.

      Summary

      A big risk is the possibility to cease to gain something worthwhile. The worthwhile or valuable things are social status, physical health, financial health and of course, emotional well being. These values can be acquired or left forever while taking a big risk in life from a stated action or inaction and that may be further planned or unplanned. It is alternatively called an intentional interplay with unpredictability. Paucity of predictability is a potential threat which is termed as an event beyond control and, therefore, a risk is undertaken in spite of knowing the fact that the success is not definite and chances of failure are high.

      Perceiving big risk is a subjective assessment that people try to conceive and the degree of risk varies from person to person, based on severity and
