Sauron's . . . mistake? Not? (What?)

Okay.
Sauron created the One Ring so that he would have control over the other Ring-bearers. Right?
Clearly, he wasn't just anybody's weakling.
But I'm baffled as to why he'd want to put so much of himself into the One Ring that his existance would depend on it. True, the Ring was terribly hard to destroy, and true, it corrupted folk so they didn't want to destroy it anyways, but all the same: Isn't trusting everything you are to a Ring a little risky?
