The Adventure-Driven Life
The Adventure-Driven Life starts with a question—What do you want to become? The question points to a road. The road reveals the answer. To travel this road, requires skillful living. When we live skillfully, we pay attention to our moment-by-moment decisions, and we frame our choices in the context of a greater plan. In time, we learn that contentment is not a destination or a result. Rather, contentment is inherent in the adventure itself. It arises along the way like warmth from a fire.

Adventure is part of nature’s design for us, a design that has been refined over millions of years. The adventure impulse is a deep, primordial need and a pattern of being. But for many of us it is something that we have partly forgotten or suppressed. The Adventure-Driven Life is a return to these ancient patterns.
