There is a risk associated with anything that is worthwhile.  Nothing is totally safe. 

If we want the really good or the really big apple, we have to climb the tree and reach out on the branch as far as we can to pick it.

If we stand on the ground and play it safe, we end up with the gnarly wormy ones.  You know, the ones we pick off the ground.

The same goes with anything worthwhile in life.  We have to stretch and reach to pick the best fruit.

Try it.  Go out on a limb.  Reach out and pick that choice dream you have always desired but were nervous about going out on a limb to achieve.
