[Kevin Kelly (founder of Wired Magazine and aged 70) shares even more bits of advice based on what he had learned thus far in life]
It’s possible that a not-so-smart person, who can communicate well, can do much better than a super smart person who can’t communicate well. That is good news because it is much easier to improve your communication skills than your intelligence.
Getting cheated occasionally is the small price for trusting the best of everyone because when you trust the best in others, they generally treat you best.
Purchase the most recent tourist guidebook to your hometown or region. You’ll learn a lot by playing the tourist once a year.
For the best results with your children, spend only half the money you think you should, but double the time with them.
Take note if you find yourself wondering “Where is my good knife? Or, where is my good pen?” That means you have bad ones. Get rid of those.
You are as big as the things that make you angry..
Habit is far more dependable than inspiration. Make progress by making habits.
Don't focus on getting into shape. Focus on becoming the kind of person who never misses a workout.
