Steve Jobs
Steve Jobs died October 5, 2011 at age 56. He was a genius and icon of our time. A great loss. We should have more like him. Following is a quote taken from his commencement speech at Stanford University in 2005 which is a favorite of mine, especially advice for young people:
"Your time is limited, so don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma — which is living with the results of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of others’ opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.”
