Bear Grylls’ early struggles and hardships

He loved adventure since he was a kid. He used to always climb cliffs with his dad and felt at home in the wild. Unfortunately, he had a hard time at school. In school, he was constantly bullied.

“I was much tougher before school I have learned to love the outdoors and to understand the wild and how to push myself. when I hit school, suddenly all I felt was fear.”

Fear forces you to look tough on the outside but makes you weak on the inside.

“This is the opposite of all I had never known as a kid growing up”

He and his friends were often beaten up by this physically stronger guy. Bear Grylls became tired of feeling weak and terrified all the time. He decided to train karate along with some friends to learn how to defend himself. Every night they used to sleep on the floor and train hard. As the days passed they learned how to fight. His confidence began to rise and, he was not afraid anymore. So the bullying stopped. He went on his first Himalayan Adventure after finishing school. He spent months hiking in India and loved being there.

In 1994, he joined the British army and served the special air service(SAS) for three years. During this time he learned a lot of surviving skills that made him a surviving specialist.

But one training exercise went very wrong and almost cost him his life. His parachute refused to open at 16000 feet while doing a skydive over Zambia. He fell on the ground and broke his back in three different places. The damage was so severe that doctors told him I might never walk again. He spent 18 painful months in military rehab.

It’s only when we get kicked down, we see what we are made of. It is easy to be positive when everything is going well. But the heart of all the great endeavors is the ability to keep moving forward, however grim it gets.
