What is good better best ?

When i try to find standard deviations of population for people who think success comes after one takes risk then it ignores the samples of people who don't think that way.

Probably it was not a Random sampling :)

Take for example: Lance Armstrong who knew he had cancer and it will be very miraculous if he survives so where is the question of Risk when he took the decision to participate in the race? He actually succeeded by not only winning Tour De France for 7 times but he succeeded over the feeling of risk taking mentality.

And if that's so simple to be successful (one should take risks to succeed)then i think people will be making suicidal attempts for sure in pursuit of success by taking unimaginable risks like jumping from Eiffel tower :)

I mean they will not suicide but their attempt for success will definitely be suicidal.

Millions beloved MJ died ,not because he took risk to perform for some 50 shows at a stretch considering he's physical weakness but i think he must have died because of fear to fail.

How many times we have been told that its all their in mind to succeed or lose and risk taking attitude is not physical but a mental attitude.

But it's easier said than done.

I guess one should not give a damn ear to people who say you are taking risk because they are the people who belong to that 95 percent confidence interval of normal distribution of population who look normal to our society because every morning they go to job ,take lunch,drink free coffee,fill office toilets,pick office stationery and come back home with lot of pollution contribution on way back and then go to nearby multiplexes and shop till the shop closes and drive back home in their Mercs!! what a fuctastic life I mean fantastic for such normal people.

The dialogue in the "pursuit of happiness" where dad says to his son that never listen to anyone who says you can not do it,not even to dad himself.

It's rather serious initiative to belong to that 2.5% on the either side of normal distribution and try out things knowing that people are laughing at you and questioning your existence.

Risk taking is bullshit!! It's a self developed human phenomenon to defend ourselves by not trying out things which we always dreamed that we ll do once we grow up.

Either we'll belong to lower 2.5% on left side of Normal distribution where Mr. MJ failed to achieve success OR we can belong to upper 2.5% on right side of Normal distribution where Mr Armstrong defied failure( actually he defied death literally which is so real and inescapable).

But the point is that it is worth trying to not belong in that so called NORMAL category of mid 95% of normal distribution even if people call you MAD,SENTI,ARROGANT,PSYCHIC etc etc..

We have to decide to do things which will make us outliers in that Normal Distribution.

Long Live MJ!!
