longevity

How would you live differently if you knew you’d live till 100?

TIL this guy holds the world record for the highest-altitude free-fall jump https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alan_Eustace

At one point he was free falling at 1,323 km/h (faster than the speed of sound)

Craziest part: he was 57 years old when he did it

I would try to chunk things into decade long projects — I have 6 to 7 of those left

I'd probably indulge myself in things that are inherently bad for you but enjoyable (tasty but rich foods etc), and take much greater physical risks

But nothing as crazy as this guy

What’s planned for the next decade?

What categories of life do you think about?

No Channel Channel.

I spent the first 1/2 (2/5 who knows?) part of life doing things I thought were useful: 
formal education, at the time prestigious jobs, then working on what seemed like important ‘problems’ as a founder

I want to spend the latter part of my years (I’m not that old, its just framing) creating entertaining things

Still puzzling through it but broadly I am prioritizing creativity and doing joyful things over strictly useful things

Been reading, and coming to the conclusion that creation is the only way to stay sane in the long term

💯

Ironically, I think (venture) startups can stifle creativity. 

Have started to think of life as a series of creative projects and that to me is far more powerful than just jumping into to build a startup.

The domino effect of this over a few decades will be magnificent

You and I have both been through a few ups and downs on the founder journey

Creation is, of course, part of that 

The thing I'm acknowledging now is that there are multiple paths to creation outside of a startup and often those paths are more sustainable and meaningful long term
