Yea was just randomly reading and came across this statement.

Capricorns are Fearless and Reckless.Which is a Dangerous yet Intoxicating Combination.

I might say truly love this. fearless not so much speaking for me i fear things but i will just do it regardless even if every bone tills me not to this is for adrenaline rushes.In other confrontational aspects when my gut says this is what needs to be done and the fear of the unknown and pops up and i go against my but instinct and let fear triumphs bad things happen. In my view its the lessons we have learnt that makes us come off as fearless as when other circumstances or even similar ones rises we don't back down.

what are my fellow caps views? and other regular cap board visitors

"My backup plans have backup plans" Love that lol!

Fearless? That's funny.

If I'm left with absolutely no other options...as in life or death situation, then I'll face whatever. Fortunately, there's always an option and if I don't have to face my fear then I can win an award for avoidance. That's just me though.

Reckless? Even funnier.

I know. I use to fight alot with cousins back in the day and one thing I notice looking back is that I'd take a lot of licks before getting to a point, but once I got there "watch out" lol.

Its always coming to a point to where you don't care who/what it is you're handling it. Unfortunately sometimes it takes a while to get there, but that buildup can work for us in the end.

Not that fearless, but admire fearless people. Reckless sometimes when I am angry, but I still try to fix whatever recklessness I caused.

I wouldn't consider it fearless. I look at it more as courage. When we have to face the fear, we will. And I would never consider myself reckless. I have plan A, plan B, plan C, plan D....

BS. We're cautious most generally. My backup plans have backup plans... and what we are good at is turning a sow's ear into a silk purse, and making lemonade from lemons, when things do go south.

As pessimistic as we really are sometimes, we are resourceful, and great at finding a silver lining in the dark clouds when we need to be. But reckless? Reckless we are not.

Im fearful for suuuuure, BUT I make the decision often to get over it. If there's something I'm after... I will get over a fear of anything that stands in my way, or is a step in the process. It becomes a habit after a while. Ive proven myself pretty courageous in dangerous situations. Its built my confidence in overcoming fear.

Reckless— There are quite a few things I've done viewed to be hugely reckless and I've relied on my will and true grit to make it work the way I want it too. If it doesnt... As cp said, i'll make a damn good second best of the outcome.

LOl @ FEARLESS I love how we give that impression to others. I hear that all the time, "Wow, you're so brave, you just pick up and move across the country!" Yeah, after I secured another job 8 months ago, researched and compared the cost of living a year ahead, researched "safe neighborhoods" with crime statistics, calculated the income needed to maintain my life style , and determined which aquaintances are worth staying in touch with and which ones can kick rocks! Sure, then I suppose I AM fearless! We're not afraid to do what HAS to be done, but by George, We will be sure that it's done with the least amount of turmoil and loss to us!

As far as fighting...My life mantra is "Don't take my sweetness for weakness" So come closer and pet the pretty sting ray! LOL

pet the pretty sting ray 🙂

yea i analyze everything but i think the fact we do it all internally or in our moment of solitude no one notice this hence we come off as fearless they have no idea how much we analyze everything

my emotions make me reckless so damn intense but that to gets puts under wraps

The ones I've met were more reckless than most people I know. Drugs, a stuntman, & a pregnant girl who almost drowned from surfing during a hurricane. However in other ways Capricorns are very cautious as well.

Whats a stuntman?

Pregnant and trying to surf during a hurricane—

Honestly, minus the pregnant part...and almost drowning, this sounds crazy but interesting for some reason. I guess because of being out in nature in the midst of it all. Im terrified of lightning, but I love storms, and love strong wind.

Seems like homegirl had some wild energy that needed to be released.

He's a Cappy rapper from out here in Atlanta. Tells a somewhat funny story of how someone tried to rob and shoot at him. Said that once he finished running, the adrenaline made him stop and laugh. Who laughs after they've been shot at lol? Cappies can have some weird energy.

Anyway, if anyone decides to watch the hardest part is getting thru the slang and the accent. Hes a gentleman in person btw.

I can stand on top of a tall building, look down and think to myself "Must be cool to jump from this high." Not that I would do it, because I do realise it would be a one time thing.

In general I would say I take calculated risks. Take a plane, know that it is safer per distance traveled than a car, but just as safe/unsafe per trip because most accidents happen at take-off and landing. There is risk everywhere.

Especially when I was younger I would get into fights because people thought they could handle the quiet tall kid. Most of the time I was left alone after that. As Capmusic said, I just don't give a fuck.
