The SAS Reserve tends to be made up of former paratroopers and commandos who still want a challenge, but it is open to civilians.
Our achievements are generally limited only by the beliefs we impose on ourselves.
Life's full of lots of dream-stealers always telling you you need to do something more sensible. I think it doesn't matter what your dream is, just fight the dream-stealers and hold onto it.
Life doesn't reward the naturally clever or strong but those who can learn to fight and work hard and never quit.
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.
As a young boy, scouting gave me a confidence and camaraderie that is hard to find in modern life.
The difference between ordinary and extra-ordinary is so often just simply that little word - extra. And for me, I had always grown up with the belief that if someone succeeds it is because they are brilliant or talented or just better than me… and the more of these words I heard the smaller I always felt! But the truth is often very different… and for me to learn that ordinary me can achieve something extra-ordinary by giving that little bit extra, when everyone else gives up, meant the world to me and I really clung to it…
Our fate is determined by how far we are prepared to push ourselves to stay alive - the decisions we make to survive. We must do whatever it takes to endure and make it through alive.
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.
Yes, the Boy Scouts of America should definitely allow gay adult leaders and I think it's really going to hold them back if they don't.
The rules of survival never change, whether you're in a desert or in an arena.
Make a little time to be quiet by yourself every day and just be.
If you risk nothing you gain nothing
I've seen extreme bravery from the least likely of people. Life is about the moments when it's all gone wrong. That's when we define ourselves.
