THE WILLINGNESS TO TAKE CHANCES OF NORMAN BORLAUG

Overcome your fear of failure. You won’t be afraid to take chances once you realize you can learn from your mistakes. WILLINGNESS TO TAKE CHANCES

DEFINITION Willingness is your judgment and perception to freely decide what you prefer to do or not do, and you are prepared to act on your choice. When you take a chance, you are expressing your desire to bring about a favorable outcome. Chances are opportunities. If you roll the dice enough times, you will eventually get what you intend. WORD ORIGIN Will comes from the Old English word willa meaning “desire, wish.” Chance comes from the Middle English word chance , which meant “fall of the dice,” which came from Latin cadere , which meant “to fall, to turn out.” 119
