Not what I expected and when I started I was a bit disappointed. After a few chapters I though this would be great for teens, towards the end I actually quite enjoyed it. Well, who wouldn't enjoy the relentless upbeat, can do, never give up, be a better person attitude that comes with Bear Grylls.

For this type of book its length is about right not sure much more could have been added.

So, if you are a teen / early twenty, read it, live by it and life will be good. If you are an old grey hair like myself then it's still not a bad reminder that a relentless upbeat, can do, never give up, be a better person attitude would have been a great way of living the past 40+ years.

Communicates the importance of tenacity, strength and resilience each and every day. Some great storytelling. Was great to re-listen to some of the stories Bear shared in his 2024 live tour.
