“The only thing that is stopping us from achieving our dreams and ambitious is fear” says Lewis Pugh, endurance swimmer and a Patron of the Oceans at the United Nations. A man who completed a long-distance swim in every ocean in the world, including the Arctic, swam across the North Pole, a glacial lake on Mount Everest, and 528 km long the English Channel.

“Fear is an interesting thing because fear is really contagious. So when I'm about to go into the Arctic, or Antarctica, about to do a swim, if I see anybody in my team that's frightened, it makes me frightened, it makes everybody frightened. So I'm always looking for people who are courageous because courage is also contagious. And it's inspiring when you see somebody who's really courageous, you realize or you think to yourself - I can do it. And so whenever I choose a team, I'm looking for courageous people”

We have all the beauty of the world and we take it for granted. Otherwise, we would have more understanding of what we do to our planet. Lewis Pugh is trying to change our thinking and to change the rules in this game, in which nature has no chance to win.

If you are looking for inspiration, you need to hear this story. A story about a man who knows better than anyone, what it means to find a purpose in life.
