Adventure is becoming a lost art in that you can now comfort your way out of it. Don't just travel, have an adventure!... it can reset all your clocks.

A new, big project can seem insurmountable. You don't know where to start, and you don't know if you'll be able to see it through. To make things a little easier, think of a big project the same way you might think of an adventure.... It might seem like trying to force something to be fun, but we know that gamifying things can make them easier to swallow.

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.

Adventures are only interesting once you've lived to see the end of them. Before that, they are nothing but fear, and being too cold or too hot or too wet or too hungry, and getting hurt.
