Chris Fox, President of the Association of Chief Police Officers said recently “People have been weaned away from risk. It’s because we have 24 hour shops, 24 hour fuel and 24 hour cash. Everything you can pop out and get. People have got comfortable. Thirty years ago people were prepared to last a little bit longer before they needed things.”

Great Britain was made great by generations of adventurers, who were able to take on bold ambitious challenges in the hope of positive outcomes and face and deal with risk and uncertainty. What is more adventures offer excitement, which is all too often missing in the lives of ordinary people?

Rediscover the spirit of adventure...
To be blunt, we have had the adventure knocked out of us. What we need is more adventure and more adventurers. We need to rediscover the “Spirit of Adventure”.
Not only will it bring us greater achievements, but also a sense of pride and fulfillment.

Definition of Adventure...
My definition of adventure is “An undertaking that involves risk and uncertainty in the hope of positive outcomes with the expectation of excitement.” When one thinks of adventure, first thoughts may go to climbing mountains, sailing oceans or perhaps walking across polar ice caps, yet an adventure is actually any undertaking that involves risk and uncertainty in the hope of positive outcomes. Our own lives are adventures as are businesses. In a way, we are all therefore adventurers, we just don’t see that.

Set Bold Ambitious Challenges...
Most businesses and individuals would benefit from setting themselves bold ambitious challenges, moving outside their comfort zones and having the courage to “have a go”, understanding that there are risk and uncertainties.

Not everything will succeed, but failure provides the opportunities to learn and develop and embark on new adventures that may well succeed. The old adage “Nothing ventured, nothing gained” can hardly be truer.

Understanding Adventure is a relative concept...
The important thing to understand is that being an adventurer is a relative concept. It doesn’t mean you need to climb a mountain or sail an ocean. It is all about setting yourself an objective that is a challenge to you and offers you the positive outcomes you desire. This might mean setting about getting promoted at work, developing personally so you feel you can achieve more or perhaps changing jobs, setting up your own business or making the that you work for more successful. In simple terms adventure is about dreaming what could be, defining your goals whatever they might be and having the courage to do something about achieving them.

Making the most of our time on Earth...
Drift is one of the biggest malaises of our age. We don’t think enough about who we are and what we really want. We waste our greatest asset; time and only seem to wake up when we have a shock; we are seriously ill, someone close to us dies, we have a significant birthday that makes us feel old (mid life crisis) etc. Often by the time we realise what has happened we have lost the moment. Life is not a rehearsal; I believe we have the right to feel alive, to experience excitement and fun, to be everything that we want to be and to do everything that we want to do. That right does not come from other people giving to you, but that right comes from your own ability to take control of you’re your own life and become accountable to yourself.

Unlocking human potential and achieving dreams...
Everyone needs help to unlock their potential and achieve their dreams. “The Three Adventurers” a trio of adventurers in life and business are offering to do just that with inspirational, motivational, educational and entertaining seminars, backed up with longer term support.

Delivering Outstanding Business Achievements in The Future...
The past is history and can’t be changed. Previous or current business success offers no guarantees for the future. The likelihood is that if you carry on doing the same things you will get the same results or worse. In the fiercely competitive business world, complacency is one of the biggest threats. Business leaders need to be looking to the future, exploring what is beyond the horizon, out of sight of others and grasping opportunities and defending against threats, often before others are even remotely aware of them. The vision you create for your businesses future is the start of your business adventure.
