#20 Dave Cornthwaite - Say Yes More to adventure!

Dave Cornthwaite, Say Yes More to adventure!

Dave Cornthwaite started saying yes to adventures in his mid-twenties and created a lifetime mission called the Expedition1000 with the aim of completing twenty-five different journeys, each over 1000 miles, spending less than £1000 and using a different form of non-motorised transport. So far he has completed fifteen, just ten to go! And these amazing adventures take a lot less time than you think.


So what’s stopping you and what’s stopping me from great adventures?


The biggest barrier is our mindset.


We are too quick to say no to adventures and close down the possibility.


When Dave asked a group of people if they wanted to go wild camping too many said no, but some said yes! Those who attended the impromptu camping session were encouraged to say yes more, which inspired Dave to start a movement called, ‘SayYesMore’


The SayYesMore movement has over 10,000 members from all over the world. They even have their own festival called the ‘Yestival’.


Dave’s message is so powerful - what would happen if you started to say yes to adventure more often?


Alright, let’s do this.
