Mauro Libi: Distinguish between being risky and being reckless




     The adventure of undertaking requires people who are willing to take risks, which are not equivalent, in any way, to being reckless when acting. We have said many times forming a company can’t be a improvisation product but extreme planning. How to distinguish one attitude from the other? Let's look at some keys:
1. Extreme sensations: Those who tend to maintain a behavior characterized by taking extreme risks in their lives often yearn to experience extreme sensations. They practice high-risk sports and are always on the verge of dangerous situations. Such attitude could also be directed at the business world, so be extremely careful and learn to breathe deeply before making hasty decisions and without calibrating all factors and indicators. Don’t blind yourself, put a cool head and carefully analyze the pros and cons of every decision you make.
2. Predict consequences: Every action and decision has consequences, so we have to meditate before acting. Reckless people don’t care about the consequences of their actions, which can lead them to situations to regret. Those who ignore the cost of failed decisions generally make decisions that can put businesses on failure.
3. Acting on impulse: Willpower is a quality that is almost always absent in reckless people. This leads them to decide hastily driven by impulses, emotions and passions. Pre-business research is very important. You have to know very well where you go.
4. Deny: Reckless people frequently deny everything, because for them the only reality that deprives is the preconception that have been formed and the vision of the facts they presume is correct. They will hardly ever be willing to analyze other scenarios other than theirs. They do not assume reality and ignore failure when they have made wrong decisions. They always have the perfect excuse to justify their performance. This underestimation of failure leads them to fail to not measure in their fair dimension the consequences of their mistaken decisions.
