This is an interesting post from Rob Conery, someone I’ve followed for quite some time, and his observations as he gets older about how he wonders if he is past keeping up with new technology.
I regularly get challenged with new roles and new technologies and often question myself but experience counts for a lot and life would be boring without challenges :)

Another podcast … I was listening to Guy Raz interview General David Petraeus on the “Wisdom from the top” podcast. Towards the end he made the observation that luck is where preparation meets opportunity. This implies the more prepared you are then the more “lucky” you will be when opportunities arise.
