A risk can be involved with so many things whether it’s good or bad. It sometimes results in an expected outcome or just an event that is horrible and unpredicted. It is important in life to take chances Hua Mulan is a Chinese warrior she decided to fight for her father in the war. She took a great risk in joining the brawl against a skilled ancient warrior. Nobody knew that she joined or where she was. At first she didn’t succeed living around men bathing the same time they did, it was hard for her to get by, trying not to show that she was actually a girl who belonged not surrounded men but back with the gender of her kind. Sometimes I don’t know how she survived, she would take long walks wrestle with the guys and had to show that she was
Life is like a wild car chase. You either have to jump out of the building or get caught by the evil and vile monsters. When you picture something like this happening you probably think about an awesome action movie that you have watched. Sometimes life is like an action movie, but if you don’t take risks, then something bad or depressing will swallow you whole. If you never try anything fun or exciting, your life will be nothing but a hole of desolation. It is better to take risks and make mistakes than to never risk anything at all because if you never took risks you would always regret missed opportunities, never accomplish your goals, and overlook large rewards.
“Only those who dare to fail greatly can ever achieve greatly.” was once said by Robert Kennedy. Taking risks does not mean someone will alway have a good outcome, some of the times they will fail over and over again and think they will never achieve, until they take one more try and get it right and accomplish something exceptional. So why do people take risks? Why are some so willing to risk everything in life to attain something so small? What makes these outcomes so extraordinary that people are remarkably eager to do anything to get there? This all boils down to the very stories and essays that are read today. But, how do the characters we read about take risks? What are their motives for doing such things? In this unit, people and characters
Disney proclaims that the adaptations of the Chinese story of Mulan is to transform ethnic materials into a “timeless” or “universal” classic (Kurtti 1998). Peter Schneider, Disney Feature Animation President, avers that “the search for who we are, the search for self, it an ever-ongoing process and universal theme” (Kurtti 1998, 189). Guided by this principle, Disney appropriated the Mulan story into its typical formula of a hero’s journey of self-discovery. The film features Mulan as a tomboyish girl who could not fit in the traditional gender role in China. She dressed like a man and went to fight the war against the Huns in her father’s place. Only in the military – a men’s world traditionally – Mulan could “be true to herself” and prove herself. Eventually Mulan single-handedly won the war, saved the Chinese kingdom, and lived happily ever after (Brown, 64-66). This, in my opinion is an interesting message to the world, that reflect how women can achieve anything in this world given the strength, courage and bravery that she could attain in a man’s dominated world. Mulan represents a women of substance, who achieved great heights due to her courage. This is a very insightful and thought-provoking message that highly justifies the idea behind the story.
The story of the great Chinese female warrior, Hua Mulan, first appeared as a ballad titled “Ode to Mulan” in approximately 500 A. D. In the ballad, there is a young woman by the name of Mulan who is feeling dejected because she has just gone into town where she saw lists of men’s names who are being called to serve in the Chinese army. One man on the list is Mulan’s crippled father. Because she has no older brother who can take his place, Mulan, with the consent of her parents, then decides to go to the marketplace and buy a horse and saddle so that she may go to war. Mulan leaves and fights in the war against the Huns for twelve years. When she returns, her troop is honore...

what is risk- taking behaviour? Risk-taking behaviours have been the subject of much speculation, from Sigmund Freud's belief that dare-devil stunts arise out of humans' innate "death drive," to some modern psychologists' view that dangerous activities canmake us feel more alive. In general, we think of risky behaviour as encompassing activities only a handful of courageous, or "crazy," people would attempt,including skydiving, rock climbing, cliff jumping, or other dramatic exploits (faqs.org). Risk taking is a behaviour taken by individuals or groups for excitements as well as to achieve specific goals and try a new experience. Risk taking behaviour can causes good and bad things for risk- takers. the good things in a risk taking behaviour is when people do it and get to the desire objective. bad things are going to be the effects that can be happened to the adventurous . who does a risk-taking behaviour? and why? adventurous do it; for different reasons. motivations for risk taking behaviour differ from person to person according to their circumstance and values. This type of people are always looking for a new adventure that is involved with risk. there are different angles for risk taking behaviour, but this research is looking at the effects and causes.
Risk management help us in a better decision making through a good understanding of risks and their likely impact. One of
Feifei Wang, author of the article: How is Disney 's Mulan perceived in China, describes Mulan as, “a straight out American movie decorated with Chinese accessories to make it interesting and exotic.” One reason for this is the process of Mulan trying to find her true self throughout the movie. Chinese audiences received this as Mulan promoting herself above the others instead. While people in China see the importance refining yourself by exercising self-control, diligence, and cleverness, they believe that you should do that unpretentiously. That you should blend in with crowd; not stick out from it. Alongside this reason another reason arises. The Mulan portrayed in the classic Disney film is too feminist for Chinese tradition. To a Chinese person Disney’s Mulan does not see a strong, independent woman who can do what a man can do as good character. Rather a bad character who disregards vital aspects of Chinese culture by committing such acts as: running to army in her father’s place without permission and falling in love on her own accord/not having an arranged marriage set up by a match maker. Both of these actions would have unthinkable, especially for a woman, within traditional Chinese culture. And it would be considered more a part of Western culture not East Asian. Later made Chinese version of Mulan did not focus on gender issues, but on
To take a chance, one is accepting the possibilities of what could happen from the choice they have made.
Risks are essence of life. In the beginning, they are our instinct. Risks are the essence of life. In the beginning, they are our instinct. We learn to crawl despite the bruises on our knees and elbows. We learn to walk despite the many falls we endure. But as we get older and gain a greater consciousness of the world around us, somewhere along the way we are presented with failure. At that point, we begin to fear the pain of failure and try to eliminate most risks from our life. However, where would we be without our sense of exploration, our willingness to and to try new things despite the pitfalls that await us? The saying goes, “No pain, no gain.” That attitude is characteristic of all great thinkers and innovators in our society.
From the moment we are born, to our last moment on earth, we take risks. It is nearly impossible to live life without taking any risks. When we begin to take our first steps, we are taking a risk. When we wake up each morning in bed, we are taking a risk. We can risk a measly amount, like scraping a knee, or a lot, like robbing a bank. Throughout the course of our existence, we will have taken countless risks, which will eventually determine our future. It is better to take risks and make mistakes than it is to remain cautious because taking risks can bolster our self-confidence, uncover unforeseen opportunities, and teach us valuable lessons.
To sum it up, To take risk is better not to take risk in life. The awesome activities, the fun sites to see, and the amazing people you could meet when you're trying to learn from your mistakes or what you like or dislike or how you can achieve more in life. We need to take risks in life because if we don't think we won't venture into the future. As a result of not taking risks you miss on a lot of things and people you meet. Next time you go somewhere take a risk besides of being scared and not taking a risk and try to do that run

Risk is an integral part of everyday human life. We both seek, and are unwillingly exposed to varying degrees of risk. Risk can be defined as being a situation with more than one outcome. Risk should be quantifiable, in that, that the risk taker should have an idea of the probabilities of the possible outcomes occurring. For Example, investing in a stock. Investing in a stock can give the investor multiple outcomes, it can give a negative outcome, like when the stock performs badly in the market and the stock decreases in value. Or it can give a positive outcome , like when the stock performs strongly in the market and the stock increases in value. The performance of a stock can be measured through past data gathered from the stock, or from similar stocks.
"Simply put, risk is uncertainty. The more risk you take, the more you stand to lose or gain. You cannot expect high returns without taking substantial risks."
