To be rash is to act too hastily or without due consideration. That's the official meaning and also how I have made most decisions in my life. Luckily though a lot of those have turned out okay but that i believe is pure luck and some amazing angels watching over me. In the same breath, a couple of those decisions have pretty useless and self destructive. Taking risks only came "later" in life, but after the first big risk, I was hooked. Making calculated ones didn't come naturally though and once your first rash decision turns out to be the best risk of your life, it's hard to kick the habit. So this rule is something I need to work on and will do my best to implement into my life so that I don't repeat some of the really idiotic rash decisions I have made, especially with regards to matters of the heart.
A calculated risk needs forethought, weighing outcomes and at the same time avoiding stupid actions. What you need to ask yourself first and foremost is, what is the worst that can happen? From there you need to consider the outcomes, good and bad and how you will deal with each. Then ask yourself if the benefits of this risk will be worth it.
So get going, start making those calculated risks and hopefully it will be the best risk of your life.
