We spend decades getting good at things. But what might we be missing by avoiding the things we’re terrible at? A few lessons from rock climbing, surfing, and the joy of being a beginner.

About Mike Wilson
I'm Mike Wilson. I'm 58, mostly retired, and increasingly fascinated by a question that I suspect a lot of people my age are beginning to ask: What do I want the next 30 years of my life to look like?
I don't simply want to live a long time. I want those years to be rich ones—to stay physically capable, intellectually curious, deeply connected to people I love, sexually alive, adventurous, useful, and open to experiences I haven't even imagined yet.
That's why I am writing, and why I've begun the project Thriving.
