Deep Dive Art of Adventure

A friend recently asked my if I had an episode that looked at what exactly adventure is. I’ve spoken about this all over the world and on dozens of other podcasts, and now I want to share with you some things I have discovered.

About two years ago I decided to become the world leading expert on adventure. Besides going on adventures myself, I have interviewed and read the works of history’s greatest adventurers. This episode is a collection of thoughts about adventure and the many different aspect of what make adventure. Enjoy!

Themes and ideas about adventure discussed in this episode:

  • Finding courage to accept challenge
  • Connecting with people through shared adversity
  • Building confidence
  • Being curious about the world
  • Creating something new for ourselves and others
  • Knowing how we handle adventure and adversity
  • Gaining new experiences and memories
  • Changing ourselves for the better
  • Achievement and getting comfortable with failure
  • Story and telling good ones so we can inspire others
  • The inner monologue we have during sruggle
  • Witnessing the awe every day
  • Learning for ourselves and from others
  • Getting into the zone in the crux of a moment (Flow)
