Why be an adventurer?

All my life I have always felt something missing. An unsettling feeling inside me keep telling me that I don’t want to be stuck here. I am getting bored already and I will be even more bored the longer I stay. So I move. Why stay if you feel stuck? Why stay because other people tell you to stay? Why stay if you don’t want to be there?

I was young and I am still young. Looking and talking to other young people I get the same feeling from them. They don’t want to be there. They are bored crazy. They are looking for something better. In my own youth I wish that someone could have convinced me to just go. Go right now. Go on an adventure and don’t stop. Become the adventure and become an adventurer.

Looking and talking to some of the old people. They seem to have given up or reached their goals. They looked for something better but could not find it. Now they feel stuck and trapped in a job, a family, with friends and life they hate. They had their adventures in their youths and now it is over. They either reached their goals or gave up along the way. I want to tell them to don’t stop. There are other ways you can continue your adventures without travelling. It won’t be the same. It will never be the same again. But you can pass on your stories of adventures to the next generation for their adventures. I will tell you how I do it.

I came to realize something about myself and about people. We all desire the future. We all desire change. We all desire greatness. We all desire growth. We all desire power. At some point along our very long journey we give up on things. Myself included. But the truth is it is not the goal that is important. It is the journey and adventure that feels meaningful. The feeling of taking a good large step towards building our own future and just feeling confident and fearless in that whatever happens is fine, because at least you tried, you did your best and you have no regrets.

Winning at everything is not fun. It feels too safe. It is not an adventure if you know what is going to happen. Too many people play life too safe. I was one of them. It is important to take risks but to stay safe and avoid trauma at the same time.

If you are a loser you have everything to look forward to and nothing left to lose. You are free to pursue whatever dream you desire. The only thing holding you back is your past. Let it go. Don't let your past hold you back.

You should be an adventurer because life without adventures is meaningless. Life is one long adventure. You already are an adventurer. Let me give you the tips I wish I would have gotten earlier in life to make your life even better.
