The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

Kind of, yeah.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

I think so.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

I think I've never been too concerned about... I don't spin.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

I mean, obviously, occasionally I stress about things, but just not the way I think a lot of people do.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

Well, presumably.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

I mean, like meditation, things like that.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

I think people can sort of find a way to let go of certain things.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

Different natures.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

But I do feel like, in my case, the biggest difference in nature is the fact that I've just always loved climbing.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

You know, because basically I think that nurture is the majority of this.

The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

Like, if you spend 30 years training a thing, you're going to get better at the thing.

The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

And so I think that the biggest difference between me and somebody who's not into rock climbing is that I freaking love rock climbing.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

I could do it 10 days a week if I could.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

You know what I mean?

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

But sadly, I get too tired and my body breaks down.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

And so...

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

I basically have a limitless capacity to do the thing.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

I just love doing the thing.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

And I think that that is probably the biggest difference in nature.

The Diary Of A CEO with Steven Bartlett
The Greatest Climber Alive: I Shouldn't Have Attempted That Climb!

Because everything else you can kind of overcome.
