I want you to draw direct correlation between the processes we go through mentally to avoid risks which could harm us and the risk processes organizations go through in dealing with risk relative to a project. How do they differ – how are they the same?  Give me some examples of behaviors you engage in with your daily life to avoid personal risk.
