> As we get older, there is one thing at which we get worse: Being a novice. Personally, I love being a novice. I intentionally seek it since mid 20 (being ~40 years old now), by learning a new game, mastering a microcontroller or programming language, etc. I still don't notice a "slow-down" in my learning process... but maybe because learning is a process that I train continuously? What I do notice is a mechanical-learning slow-down, for example, if I pick a new videogame, it takes a while until I "catch-up" with aiming, or button sequences, etc.
