- Awareness (Knowing possible risks)

- Calculating possible failures and negativities (Whatever goes wrong, current and future situations will be damaged, how to protect against these possible negativities.)

(If risk is managed, it means opportunity; if it is not managed, it means destruction)

- Risk management: identifying risks (avoiding if possible), defining solution methods, planning and implementing strategies.

- Success is a matter of patience. It is necessary to be ready and to be able to sustain it. It's pointless to make excuses for failure. It is not right to blame your environment or economic conditions. Question what you haven't done as much as what you have done... It is necessary to see the glass half full as well as half empty. In some cases, your biggest defeat may create the conditions that will reveal your biggest gain, as long as you are aware of it.
