What's a life adventurer, buddy?

I made it up 10 minutes ago.

But it doesn't mean many people don't live this way, and many without realising it.

A life adventurer is someone who, in seeing life as a grand adventure, extracts more juice than most.

To clarify what I'm saying, here are their habits:

1. Develop the skill of strategic detachment.

When was the last time you wished things were different to the way things were? Not a great vibe is it?

Attachment to outcomes is the literal formula for suffering.

So, to live a life with far less suffering, detach yourself as needed.
