Lucky seven: Weekly letter with five quotes from others and two things I'm considering.

Today, let's explore some quotes shared by Kevin Kelly.

  1. A worthy goal for a year is to learn enough about a subject so that you can't believe how ignorant you were a year earlier.
  2. The more that you are interested in others, the more interesting they find you. So to be interesting, be interested.
  3. Art is in what you leave out.
  4. A vacation plus a disaster equals an adventure.
  5. Rule of 7 in research: you can find out almost anything if you're willing to go seven levels. If the first source you ask doesn't know, then you ask them who you should ask next. And so on, down the line. If you're willing to do that to the seventh source, you will almost always get your answer.

And two thoughts from my side. As always, one funny and the other positive:

  1. Wanting to meet an author because you like his work is like wanting to meet a duck because you like pâté.
  2. Nobody can order me to stop dreaming.

Have a great week ahead, and see you on the next occasion!
