By avoiding danger, are you also avoiding your life’s full potential? Join celebrated neurosurgeon Dr. Ben Carson as he explores the life-changing power of taking chances, even if you’re scared. In our danger-shy culture, we value safety highly. We protect our vacations. We verify car crash test results. We extend our appliance warranties.
But by shielding ourselves from the unknown, the inherent hazards of life, we overlook the thrilling adventure of living life to its fullest potential. Dr. Ben Carson spent his youth as a risky child on the streets of Detroit, and he took considerable chances in performing intricate brain and spinal cord surgeries. Now, with inspiring personal examples, Dr. Carson encourages us to welcome danger in our own lives.

Risk-taking in history
An evaluation of the actual costs and benefits of risk
Learning how to assess and embrace risks
Understanding how risk uncovers the purpose of your life
From a man whose life clearly illustrates the link between great risks and greater accomplishments, the knowledge Dr. Carson shares in Dare to try will help you overcome your fear of danger to dream big, aim high, move confidently, and reap the benefits of wise risk-taking.
