🎯 "Opportunity knocks softly. Are you awake enough to hear it?" Most people think risk comes from trying something new. But truthfully? The greatest risk is doing nothing. 📉 When opportunity shows up — whether in business, property, or personal growth — the real cost isn’t in what it requires, it’s in what you lose by not taking it. That’s the concept of opportunity cost. ⚖️ The Weight of Regret: A Tale of Two Words In Chinese, there are two characters for regret: 悔 (huǐ): Regret from doing something 懊 (ào): Regret from not doing something Me? I’d rather live with lessons from action than regrets from hesitation. You only live once. And when the universe (or the God of Fortune 🙏) offers a handful of gold, I won’t be caught sleeping. 💤 ✝️ “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come… So you also must be ready.” — Matthew 24:42–44 ✝️ “At midnight there was a cry: ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him!’ … and the door was shut.” — Matthew 25:6–10 🧠 Why Calculated Risk Beats Comfort Yes, there’s risk in action. But inaction is often riskier. Right now: Inflation is stealing your buying power Job cuts are rising across industries Interest rates are still volatile And economic policies? Changing fast — and rarely in your favour Still thinking playing it safe is safe? Think again. 💡 How I Decide: I rely on tools like: Opportunity vs Risk Matrix Time-value of money calculations Cost of delay calculators Sunken cost analysis I take calculated risks. I do my due diligence. And then I MOVE. Because no one is coming to save me. Not the government. Not the pension system. Not the economy. I create my OWN plan B — through property, business, and financial education. 🔥 Ready to Take Back Control? If you're tired of watching opportunities pass you by...
