The Risk of Taking Risks

I'm sure there is some profound quote already stating what I am about to state, but as I prepared my goals for 2009 something occurred to me.

A few people I know that have not been as successful as I have, failed because they took risks. I have always played things safe and for the most part have lived a safe and comfortable life. Risk taking makes me uncomfortable. However, it's clear that I know more people who have taken risks in which they have been far more successful than me in the end.

I'm going to take a big risk in 2009. The bigger the risk the bigger the reward...right?
