I don’t know why calling potential clients feels like such a risk to me, but it is. Know how I know? Because I often procrastinate doing it! I can even put off returning calls of people who have called to express interest in hiring me! It’s crazy, I know, but it’s true!

So today, my risk is (or should I say, my risks are) calling at least five people back, and, if it seems appropriate, ask for the business!

And actually, I’m taking another risk, today, too – I’ve just told you about one of my challenges, (I have many of them. I am human, after all.)

So, what about you? Are a you human with challenges that you want to overcome? Why not address one of them by taking a risk today?
