Adventure Heroes

So here’s something interesting.  You know here at Quix I often talk about the concept of “Adventure”.  A sense of adventure after all is what puts most of us in the cockpit of our boats, whether we are paddling around the local lake or taking off an amazing expedition.   When I think more deeply about the idea of “adventure” I’m really using one word to describe a couple ideas;  A love of life and desire for new experiences. By that definition you needn’t go very far to have an adventure.  In truth, little adventures are around every corner for those who have an eye for them.  Often it’s just a matter of attitude. In fact, even personal failure is often the launching point of an adventure if you are able to recognise it as such.  The result of failure in your life is that whatever idea or plan you had suddenly goes in the dumper.  From that moment you either let it get you, or you learn what you can, draw up a new plan, and move forward. Just like planning an expedition really.  Learn about it, plan for it, and go.  Adventure is everywhere.
 

This brings me to an interesting series called “Adventure Heroes” hosted by New Zealand adventure coach Sara Wilson.  Adventure Heroes is series of inspirational interviews with a variety of coaches and adventurers that began last week at AdventureHeroes.com. Included in the 7 week series is an interview with Justine Curgenven who will talk about “finding your dream, and going for it”.  Others include; Mountain climber Guy Cotter, musician Mike Handcock, wheelchair adventurer Tony Christiansen and more.  You may find the Adventure Heroes series to be the perfect prelude to spring.
