Taking Chances

Chance is the providence of adventurers.   
I believe in taking chances 
and living your life. 
Sometimes doors open and others close 
and you have to figure out 
which one you're going to take. 
Chances don't approach you, 
it's you who approach chances.
Chances are anywhere else, 
all you need to do is to grab them 
because they don't always show up.
He who takes no chances 
wins nothing in the end. 
Take a chance. 
You'll never know 
how perfect something 
might turn out to be.     
Be passionate about your life. 
Learn to live without 
the fear of failing. 
Take a chance, 
you just might surprise yourself.
Take a chance! 
All life is a chance. 
The man who goes farthest 
is generally the one who 
is willing to do and dare.
Take chances, make mistakes. 
That's how you grow. 
Pain nourishes your courage. 
You have to fail 
in order to practice being brave.
Our lives improve only when 
we take chances. 
Every chance taken 
is another chance for achievement. 
Never regret taking a chance, 
even if you fall on your face.  
It's better to know you tried 
and failed than to wonder the great what if?
In life we take chances 
to prove ourselves that we are strong enough to be here.
Chance corrects us of many faults 
that reason would not know how to correct.
Chance never helps 
those who do not help themselves.   
Chance happens to all, 
but to turn chance to account 
is the gift of few.
Chance is a word void of sense 
nothing can exist without a cause.
Nobody owes anybody a living, 
but everybody is entitled to a chance.
Where observation is concerned, 
chance favors only the prepared mind.
