  • Kevin Kelly: Excellent Advice for Living — Renaissance Life (RL#20)

    Kevin Kelly: Excellent Advice for Living — Renaissance Life (RL#20)
    2023/08/30

    Welcome to another episode of the Renaissance Life — a podcast dedicated to the pursuit of creativity, mastery, and a meaningful life.


    Today’s episode is a conversation with the wonderful Kevin Kelly.


    Kevin Kelly is the co-founder and Senior Maverick at Wired. He is also the co-chair of The Long Now Foundation, an organization that champions long-term thinking. Kevin Kelly has also written a number of best-selling books, including The Inevitable, an excellent book that guides you through the 12 technological imperatives that will shape the next 30 years and transform our lives. I highly recommend his newest book, Excellent Advice for Living: Wisdom I Wish I'd Known Earlier, which is a fantastic read chock-full of wisdom and insight.

    Join (for free) at Renaissance Life for the Kevin Kelly Action Guide.

But I've also noticed that I get really, really inspired by serving others."“You can’t actually pull yourself up by your bootstraps. Right? Like that's an old slang saying, but ultimately you have to be lifted by those around you. Meaning you can't just act like it's only you in this world and you're going to get some passive income somehow and just think about nothing but yourself.”“My happiest creative friends I know are the ones who balance making money with making their art."On Learning Something New:Find a good book and focus.“Then my next bit of advice for learning something new is to set up a or find multiple teaching sources, like say like a video course and three different books. I found the hard way that different perspectives really help you see something clearly.” “Have different teachers teach you the same thing, meaning, [from] different sources.”And then lastly, deliberate practice where You understand that learning something means you're going to have to not just sit and read about it, but, but do it.Q: Is this really helping me or hurting me?Last Two:A question to ask yourself:“Find the opposite point of view of anything that you currently think is true. Just pick something that you think of as true right now. And find a way to think about the opposite of it. (and good luck doing that with politics.)”Challenge / Action Step: Email Derek :) ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★

Maxwell”What are the better lessons and characteristics of the older generations we emulate and copy that into the future to incorporate our own authentic voice?”“Like you and what you’ve said in your previous podcast in our conversations if you really want to be a Renaissance person, you've got to invest in yourself and you've got to have those habits and those routines and really understand time management and, and just know how to, focus”“I think the way to cure loneliness is to know thyself. It's not complicated. Right? And you can only know thyself if you can sit in silence and reflect and write and connect with other people one on one.”“If you're gonna sell something, people have to see the vision and they have to, it has to be something they can, touch or it has to be tangible.”“If you are an inspiring entrepreneur, you could do worse than get your start in journalism. Because journalism teaches you how to ask thoughtful questions and how to do due diligence and how to do your research so that when you do write that business plan or you do put together that strategy, you can really be clear about what do you mean and how do you know. So that you can make calculated decisions moving forward.”“Before launching a company and be an entrepreneur and a CEO is to be the CEO of your own life. Think about how your own life can be run as a business. What does that look like? Do you as an individual, do you have a board of advisors?”Do you have a personal brand? Do you have a website where you are sharing your thoughts and your ideas and establishing your own credibility? Do you have just business cards that you're passing around to people that you meet and say, Hey, this is who I am. This is what I'm passionate about. If more entrepreneurs took or aspiring entrepreneurs took the time out to build that personal brand and run their own lives, like a business where not just on the promotion side, but also on the operation side, you're, you're tracking where you spend your time and at the end of each month you sit back and you're like, huh, that's really interesting.”“Life works when you let it and as long as you do things in the right order.”“I think it's important to be aware of your decision-making process and because one of the issues where we, I think we all stumble is we, we don't know how to prioritize in a way that aligns with our values and what we really care about, where we're always bombarded with limited time and resources and way too many decisions that we could be making.”“It's the things you let go that you don't see are the things that change your life.”“Sometimes the easiest solution is often in the right one.”“She has a plan. So you're saying it more succinctly than I am. That's the advice is just to make sure that you have a plan. And place that if you are going to do creative work, whether it's, you know, do music or, or do art or do writing or do photography or do film or whatever your creative outlet is, just to be thinking about how that's going to affect your livelihood, how that will impact the people in your life around you.”“We make the story, we tell ourselves real.”Three Skills I would want to master:Statistics / Data Science"statistics, I think data science, and predictive modeling and that sort of stuff.

    Books Mentioned:

    Cherry by Nico Walker

    Women: A Novel by Charles Bukowski

    post office: A Novel by Charles Bukowski

    Broken English Taco

    On busy friends: “I think everyone's busy so it's important not to take anything personally”

    On mentorship: “I just pay attention to what people do”

    On being an artist: “It's in you deep dude. It's like I don't even know how to explain it. had a moment when I was painting in my apartment in Birmingham when I realized like holy crap. This is why I'm here or that moment of realization of purpose and just like wept as I was painting this painting and I have never felt like that doing anything else maybe running and. So it's just like. I don't know if there wasn't social media or any of that shit. I'd still be doing it because it's just a part of me and it's why I believe I'm here.”

    On overwhelm: “I take some CBD. Try to stay calm and then I make a list with boxes and check off things one at a time.”

    On getting good at what you do:

    “How do you get good at something? You practice it constantly.”

    “That’s a way to get better at your craft, hang out with people better than you. And people that do different work than you.”


    CHALLENGE:

    Just self-love is important — practice that every day as much as you can
    Spend time with yourself. Get to know yourself. I know a lot of people have problems with being alone. I spent a lot of time alone, and I think it's really.
