The definition of “daring” is brave, risk-taking, willingness to take risks or to be bold.
The willingness to take or seek out risks by being bold and venturesome.
People who are daring are willing to do or say things which are NEW & DIFFERENT & CHALLENGE THE STATUS QUO.
A daring person understands the personal risk assumed by shocking or angering those in power (speaking truth to power).
Bold people stand out from the group because they are more confident, more courageous and more directed.
People who choose to be bold with meaning and purpose to make things better are inspiring because they accomplish positive change that makes a difference.
