Succinct bits of wise, practical, optimistic life advice from author, leading technology thinker, and Wired magazine cofounder Kevin Kelly On his sixty-eighth birthday, Kevin Kelly wrote down for his young adult children some things he had learned about relationships, business, and life that he wished he had known earlier. To his surprise, he had more to say than he thought, so he continued composing these short passages of guidance until he had more than four hundred of them. Kellys bits of advice cover an astonishing range of subject matter, and each statement is meant to be a memorable prompt for an action one could take. Many of them are about right living, good conduct, and civility. There is advice on setting ambitious goals, forgiveness and gratitude, taking responsibility for mistakes, optimizing generosity, and cultivating awareness, compassion, and creativity. Kelly has wisdom for career, work, and finances. He gives guidance for practical matters ranging from parenting to troubleshooting, and the importance of learning how to tie a bowline knot. Excellent Advice for Living is aimed primarily at young people, and in particular at young professionals, but it will speak to anyone at any stage of life. Kellys advice is memorable, and, more important, needed right now.Kevin Kelly helped launch and edit Wired magazine. He has written for The New York Times, and The Wall Street Journal, among many other publications. His previous books include What Technology Wants, and The Inevitable, a New York Times bestseller. He is known for his technological optimism. Currently he is a Senior Maverick at Wired and lives in Pacifica, California.Book specifications:Author: Kevin KellyCover type: HardcoverPublishing Year: 2023Publishing Month: 5Pages: 224Language: EnglishPublisher: VikingWeight: 567 g
