About ~8 years ago, I realized *novelty* helps me stay motivated and excited 

Easier said than done

I've found the most success in playing music with others, meeting new people, and learning new skills (instruments, technology, design, cooking, et al)

How do you think about this kind of thing?

I realized the same about myself! It's part of why nomading for the past 3+ years gives me energy since always in different surroundings

Otherwise how I've been thinking about it is I love being in beginners mindset constantly so I make sure to find at least one area in my life where I'm always learning something new

Co-founder @bountycaster (bountycaster.xyz). Co-producer @ethereumfilm. Previously co-founder of Scalar Capital and product at Coinbase

Ahh, I'm not alone!

The *beginner's mindset* framing is a great one 

I feel the same way, I love that feeling of *needing* to ask questions to keep learning

It pulls me out of my head and is a great way to connect with awesome teachers and mentors

I share the same feelings, I like to think myself as a student all my life. And more importantly keep that small child alive inside me by following my curiosity and naivety. I'm always joggling around places, meeting new people and learning new skills.
