stars goal challenges
Everyone needs something to aim for. You can call it a challenge, or you can call it a goal. It is what makes us human. It was challenges that took us from being cavemen to reaching for the stars.
struggle opportunity challenges
When something doesn't go exactly to plan, money is tight or a business is struggling - see it as a challenge rather than a failure. Look outside the box and try and find a solution - you'll be surprised how many great opportunities and possibilities arise when things look bad. You've just got to open your mind and not be afraid of sticking your neck out!
views challenges point-of-view
And obviously, from our own personal point of view, the principal challenge is a personal challenge.
entrepreneur challenges risk
An entrepreneur is somebody who is taking bold risks, is often doing things that have never been done before, trying to do things better. And an adventurer is challenging themselves, often doing things that have never been done before, seeing what they're capable of. In both cases, you've got to protect against the downside.
positivity opportunity challenges
Rather than getting nostalgic...embrace the new opportunities and challenges available to you now.

I like to set myself a new adventure challenge at least once or twice a year because I love that side of my life. I love getting fit and training for it.
