Cubicle Chimps Podcast

"I am an old man and have known a great many troubles, but most of them have never happened." – Mark Twain

In this episode the Cubicle Chimps explore all these questions and more. Based on a LinkedIn Post that Ragu wrote, called The 7 thieves of Success, this episode dives deep into the "Second" in the list - Playing It Safe. 

What steps can you take, if you want to stop playing it safe? These are some of the steps that worked for Ragu

• Understand What you want, do some soul searching? Ask yourself will I be happy doing this in the next 5 years. What is that I always wanted to do but not done because of fear.
• To Plan: Say you want to start your own business - Start researching, read articles, case studies, books. Put a 1 month - 6 months - 1 year & 2 year plan before you start your business.
• Start Saving: What I mean is like I mentioned in the beginning of the podcast, if you can’t get out of a job because of the Cushion it gives you - Make that Cushion yourself by saving. 
• Work Hard: Be prepared to toil you will have the confidence to take those risks and bet on yourself. Exercise your Hard Work Ethic in you.

"When you play it too safe, you'r e taking the biggest risk of your life. Time is the only wealth we're given." - Barbara Sher
