Describe a risk you took that you thought it will lead to a terrible result but ended up with a positive result.

So basically there is drama there. You thought something horrible is gonna happen but nothing happened and it was all good.

So that's the basic thing behind it and once you get your head around it. I'm going to share with you an experience I had and when I took the risk, why I took the risk, how it went and explain how I felt about it.

So recently I went to Mountain Negro so it's a country close to Serbia. You probably heard of that and it's near the coastal area there's a beautiful sightseeing place which is called Blue Cave.

And and how you see it. You kind of have to swim in the sea and I've never swum in the wild sea before. Usually it's around the coastal area and I thought I was gonna die so I slipped into the water from the boat and I was really panicking.  Because I really wanted to see the blue cave and then the captain told me I should just relax my body, I know how to swim, I should trust myself and I should trust knowing the sea has lots of salt. it's very salty so I'm going to float.

And eventually I went to the blue cave, I went underneath and I saw some beautiful things that I've never seen before and yeah I thought it was gonna be horrible eventually. It was great and I get to share this experience with you.

And then you need to think about your personal experience and what made you scared or upset and then eventually was fine. Maybe something that you've never done before and you challenged yourself or a competition or some travel plan that you didn't make and you went.

It could be anything.

How should parents teach their children what a risk is?

How should they teach it? You don't have to think about method, you don't think about step by step and simply you could just show them, tell them and these are the simple ways of teaching a kid how to know what risk is, what's dangerous and what is not. Maybe speaking to a stranger, eating strangers' food or just go out on your own or go near the lake. These are the things you can talk about.

What risks should parents tell the children to avoid?

Like I said something that could be dangerous for kids. Yeah like I mentioned the previously.

Why does some people like to watch a risk taking movies?

It's fun. That's interesting. It's advenurous, isn't it? And we like to watch SCI Fi because it kind of takes our imagination beyond the space which is pretty amazing that you cannot experience in real life but you can from the movies.

Why do some people enjoy dangerous sport?

People like extreme stuff and then at this point we can talk about young people and old people. For young generations we are adventurous, we're curious about life or some people who are very sporty who like extreme sport like a bungee jumping like a sky diving but if you are not a fan, you can just say from a different perspective with some people who don't like to take risks.

What kind of sports are dangerous but exciting?

You see, these are connected again. I have mentioned about it so do think of some words that'you are familiar with.

Who is more interested in taking risks, the young or the old?

These questions and they kind of all have the similar way of talking about same thing but in different angles. So you can talk about young and old and you can talk about people from the big cities, people from small cities and who are more interested in taking risks and then we can say the physical health would probably be a big factor in this.

Because if you're not healthy, your body hurts and you're not as strong, you don't have lots of muscles, you probably don't want to take risks even you are interested in it.

Hope that helps you. I'will see you next time bye.
