Adventure should be 80 percent 'I think this is manageable,' but it's good to have that last 20 percent where you're right outside your comfort zone. Still safe, but outside your comfort zone.

More quotes by Bear Grylls
My best life lessons and education didn't come from a classroom - they've come from the wild. How you act in the big moments, the ones that challenge you, scare you, tempt you, and force you to make the right decisions, is what defines you.
Bear Grylls
There's no magic to running far or climbing Everest. Endurance is mental strength. It's all about heart.
Bear Grylls
I have held healthy respects of bears along with assorted crocodiles, snakes and lots of other animals. You know, bears are dangerous, you have to be super careful.
Bear Grylls
The difference between ordinary and extra-ordinary is so often just simply that little word - extra.
Bear Grylls
Always keep the big picture in mind- you are greatly loved by Jesus and your job is to love Him and others in return. The rest is detail.
Bear Grylls
I don't like expeditions where it is a total lottery whether you live or die. You have to keep those sort of good luck cards for rare occasions!
Bear Grylls
And if you give your heart to a goal, it will repay you. It's the law of the universe.
Bear Grylls
Our achievements are generally limited only by the beliefs we impose on ourselves.
Bear Grylls
All my life the only thing I've been good at has been climbing and throwing myself off big things.
Bear Grylls
The line between life or death is determined by what we are willing to do.
Bear Grylls
Both faith and fear may sail into your harbor, but only allow faith to drop anchor.
Bear Grylls
Being brave isn't the absence of fear. Being brave is having that fear but finding a way through it.
Bear Grylls
For me, my training is a key part of my work as so often my life has depended on being able to move fast and haul myself up and out of something fast!
Bear Grylls
All worthwhile journeys have big obstacles. It's the way of the world. The rewards go to those who can push through those trying moments and still manage to keep a smile on their face.
Bear Grylls
Sometimes it's hard for us to believe, really believe, that God cares and wants good things for us and doesn't just want us to go off and give everything up and become missionaries in Burundi.
Bear Grylls
Never depend on those luck moments – they are gifts – but instead always build your own back-up plan.
Bear Grylls
Eating any of these things, goat testicles or what have you, isn't going to be nice, but you get into that zone, you become focussed and you do what you need to do. It's all about one thing: coming home in one piece.
Bear Grylls
Weather can kill you so fast. The first priority of survival is getting protection from the extreme weather.
Bear Grylls
Life has taught me to be very cautious of a man with a dream, especially a man who has teetered on the edge of life. It gives a fire and recklessness inside that is hard to quantify.
Bear Grylls
Time and experience have taught me that fame and money very rarely go to the worthy, by the way - hence we shouldn't ever be too impressed by either of those impostors. Value folk for who they are, how they live and what they give - that's a much better benchmark.
