COT:
I watched MoneyBall (again) last week. I was reminded about the importance of taking risks. The manager (Brad Pitt) basically bet his career on a new system of building a team, and everyone expected him to fail. When the season was complete, he had changed the entire trajectory of baseball.
I’ve been working in engineering for about 30 years. The Engineers who do the worst in their careers are the ones who “play it safe”. This typically means taking a a government job where it’s difficult to be fired. I don’t think it’s possible to have maximum impact without taking risks. You have to voluntarily subject yourself to challenges, or you are not doing all you can be.
If you fail, you have still gained knowledge. So in some sense it is impossible to fail.
