Excellent Advice for Living: Wisdom I Wish I’d Known Earlier with Kevin Kelly [Podcast]

Podcast #328 – Excellent Advice for Living: Wisdom I Wish I’d Known Earlier

Excellent Advice for Living: Wisdom I Wish I'd Known Earlier with Kevin Kelly [Podcast]Description:

In this episode I am speaking with Kevin Kelly who is the author of Excellent Advice for Living: Wisdom I Wish I’d Known Earlier. On his 68th birthday, Kevin Kelly began to write down for his young adult children some things he had learned about life that he wished he had known earlier. To his surprise, Kelly had more to say than he thought and kept adding to the advice over the years, compiling a life’s wisdom into these pages.

When I read this book, I was smiling the entire time.

Here is the short version of Kevin’s incredible biography:

Kevin Kelly is Senior Maverick at Wired magazine. He co-founded Wired in 1993 and served as its Executive Editor for its first seven years.

His newest book is Excellent Advice for Living, a book of 450 modern proverbs for good living.

He is co-chair of The Long Now Foundation, a membership organization that champions long-term thinking and acts as a good ancestor to future generations. And he is the founder of the popular Cool Tools website, which has been reviewing tools daily for 20 years.

From 1984-1990 Kelly was publisher and editor of the Whole Earth Review, a subscriber-supported journal of unorthodox conceptual news. He co-founded the ongoing Hackers’ Conference and was involved with the launch of the WELL, a pioneering online service started in 1985.

Other books by Kelly include 1) The Inevitable, a New York Times and Wall Street Journal bestseller, 2) Out of Control, his 1994 classic book on decentralized emergent systems, 3) The Silver Cord, a graphic novel about robots and angels, 4) What Technology Wants, a robust theory of technology, and 5) Vanishing Asia, his 50-year project to photograph the disappearing cultures of Asia. He is best known for his radical optimism about the future.
