Adventure is doing something that's adventurous for you... what pushes YOU outside of your comfort zone. I've meet some pretty inspiring adventurers... those who've walked to the South Pole or the length of the Nile, but they are completely out of my league. I'd never do anything if I compared myself against those amazing human beings. But by bringing a little adventure into my own life, it's taught me that...
- it makes you smile, laugh and have a ridiculous amount of fun
- it introduces you to awesome people… the supportive ones, the ones who know stuff you need to know or have stuff that make life a whole lot easier, the ones who’ll just have your back, the ones that will listen, those who are doers, and the general super positive, outgoing and inspiring ones
- teaches you how to work with those in authority (when you really need them)
- teaches you how asking with a smile goes a long long way
- you learn when things get tough, if keep your eye on what you want to achieve and don’t give up, amazing things can happen
- makes you challenge your comfort zone and boundaries
- makes you question what you can really achieve (and what could be next!)
- makes you realise what you can get done outside of your full time job
- makes you realise how much you can still learn and teach yourself
- will leave you feeling like you’ve done something pretty memorable and that it's been a year of living with purpose
Adventure makes you feel ALIVE! I would encourage everyone to try something they haven’t done before, because the feeling you will get will be pretty special.
