#003 - Adventurer Jelle Veyt - Lessons from facing death and living on the streets
28 Oct 2019
Adventurer Jelle Veyt on getting caught in an avalanche on Everest, lessons learned from living on the streets for two years, and how death can be a big motivator. Jelle is a professional adventurer. He is now on a quest to cycle/row to the highest mountains on every continent and climb them. This was a very personal interview, and it some of the most practical insights in a short amount of time I have ever encountered on: - being grateful for food and shelter - being ready to die, but loving to live - why you make yourself unhappy - how to stop living like a zombie - why it's good to cry like a baby - how everything is temporary, including feeling bad - how and when to finally start living your dream - most importantly: don't hold your farts, let them go!
