Introduction

Adventure

How many times have we caught ourselves wishing for more adventure in our life? And when we do, it’s usually met with a sigh. If only we had the time, if only we had the money.

As we get older, we accumulate commitments and obligations. We might have mortgages to pay, kids to look after, laundry that needs doing. We become creatures of habit, and so we get into a cycle of chores and demands. Over the years these can become ruts so deep we just don’t think we could ever break out of them.

Sure we could blow our entire savings to go and climb up Mount Everest, but if we did, our home would probably be repossessed, and our spouse might file for divorce.

And so we discount adventure. It’s something we long for, yet there’s always at least one barrier stopping us from going to seek it.

But just what is adventure? I’m sure if I asked you now, the image you’d conjure up in your mind would be of someone climbing to the top of Mount Everest, or Indiana Jones retrieving a long lost artifact from some perilous jungle, or maybe some fantasy quest filled with princesses and dragons.

What do these all have in common? Well there’s certainly danger there. We could be eaten by the dragon or fall off the mountain. A nd for Indiana Jones there was always snakes or Nazis (sometimes both!). There’s the excitement as well. An epic fight with a dragon is… well… just epic. Indiana Jones is always swinging over traps with that bull whip of his, and who couldn’t feel at least a little excitement at having climbed to the top of the world?

Uncertainty and Risk

Indiana Jones might not make it over the pit, the dragon might eat our fantasy knight, the mountaineer might find the climb too taxing to make it to the top. There’s no guarantees in any of those scenarios that the outcome will be successful. And in all those scenarios only the mountaineer stands a chance of getting back home safe, and even then they might be too weak to make it back to basecamp.

When we look at adventure like that, you can see why, whilst we might long for it, we opt to stay in our day to day.

We also hate failure as a species. Look at our media and how we view people who come second or try and yet fail. At best they get ignored, at worst they are made a mockery of.

But here’s a fact, no-one who has succeeded at anything has got there without tasting failure first. Consider that for a moment. In order to succeed, we often need to fail. It seem ludicrous at first but when we start to think about it it’s true. The Olympic athlete did not just decide to compete one day and enter the Olympics as their first race. The craftsman did not learn their art without making lots of mistakes on the way.

We worry about
