The Art of Risk Amortization

Ever watched a master juggler at work? There's something mesmerizing about seeing someone keep multiple objects in motion, each following its own arc yet part of a larger dance. What most people don't realize is that the juggler isn't trying to prevent drops – they're creating a system where occasional drops don't matter. This is the essence of risk amortization, and it might just change how you think about taking chances in life.

Think about the last time you faced a major life decision. Maybe it was changing careers, starting a business, or moving to a new city. Traditional wisdom probably told you to choose the safe path, to avoid risks, to stick with what's proven. But here's what they don't tell you: the most successful people aren't necessarily the ones who avoid risks – they're the ones who structure risks intelligently.

Quick Start:

• Keep 80% of your life stable
• Use 20% for small experiments
• Start with three tiny tests
• Log what you learn
• Build gradually
