Do What You Love. The Time is NOW.
Steve Jobs (1955-2011)
I have just come across this seminar that Steve Jobs gave to a group of graduates back in 2005. Reading his words gave me goose bumps down my spine. There is only one thing that we can truly be certain of, and that is death. We will all die, each and every one of us. There is no escape. Time is short and limited, so why the hell do we waste out precious days doing things that suck out our souls!?
I don’t want to wake up one day with regrets, lost hopes and dreams….
I want to be just like Steve Jobs, and “Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.”
If you’re reading this post you must also take a look at the link to the talk Steve Jobs gave….
“Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven’t found it yet, keep looking. Don’t settle. As with all matters of the heart, you’ll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don’t settle.”
“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.”

“You have to trust in something — your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith.”
How inspiring are his words? If you are having a day of doubts, if you are thinking of giving up, and taking the easy path re-read this passage. I’m sure it will help re-stoke the fire, and keep the beliefs burning. YOU CAN DO IT!
