The Adventurer’s Handbook

Life is an Adventure!

Your life can be either a challenge or a great adventure – it can be whatever you decide to make it. The Adventurer’s Handbook is designed to help you get the most out of life, by helping you to discover who you really are, and help you become who you really want to be.

The Adventurer’s Handbook helps you set your own moral compass and chart your own course by learning the ancient wisdom embodied in the 25 Timeless Virtues.

From the ancient Greek philosophers to Zen Masters, to Native American shamans, to America’s founding Fathers, all cultures throughout history have recognized the power of personal virtues such as Self Mastery, Courage, Honor, and Love. It is one’s commitment to virtue that defines one’s character and moral excellence as a person.

The power of each of the 25 Timeless Virtues is exemplified through well-loved stories about heroes and villains, and ordinary people in extraordinary circumstances. These time-honored teachings have been carefully collected from across many diverse traditions including classic literature, folklore, American and world history, as well as sacred texts including the Bible, the Quran, and the Tao Te Ching.

As you practice the Timeless Virtues, you will increase your power of self-determination; and you will attract high-quality relationships with other virtuous people who can help you achieve extraordinary success. You will be recognized as one of the rare individuals who have outstanding character; one who always makes the hard, but ethically sound choices, and who strives for excellence in everything you do.

The mission of the Adventurer’s Club is to help you to become the best possible version of yourself, to not only live a life less ordinary, but one that is extraordinary!

“I wish that all young men and women would read this book, and learn how to embrace the 25 Timeless Virtues. These are the qualities that have helped me overcome every difficult obstacle in my life and allowed me to reach the NFL. If there is anything I can pass on to the next generation, it is this: Be a person of unquestionable and unblemished virtue and character. It is one of the few things in life that is completely under your own control, and it is the most important factor that will determine not only where you will go in life, but also who will go with you, and how much you will enjoy the journey.”
