Being brave isn't the absence of fear. Being brave is having that fear but finding a way through it.

I love making healthy lean foods delicious - that's an art!

Above all, I feel a quiet pride that for the rest of my days I can look at myself in the mirror and know that once upon a time I was good enough. Good enough to call myself a member of the SAS. Some things don’t have a price tag.

I hang out all the time with kids and young scouts and I never meet kids who don't want adventure.

Don't be scared to dream big, and don't be afraid to be close to people. And never give up! It's the tenacious not the talented that win.

Why is it that the finish line always tends to appear just after the point at which we most want to give up? is it the universe's way of reserving the best for those who can give the most? What I do know, from nature, is that the dawn only appears after the darkest hour.

Survival can be summed up in three words - never give up. That's the heart of it really. Just keep trying.
