This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope its the closest I get for a few more decades. Hing lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely inlectual concept:

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heen don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has r escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

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 vo. And most important, he the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

After experiencing the life journey with St Jobs by listening to his speech in Stanford in 2005, my tears started falling down. The vital three parts of his life in the speech impressed me and made me rink the true value of life. In the first part, he made chos which seems to be unbelievably stupid to most of us. Howr, he survived and thrived. Therefore, no matter what we he chosen, for better or worse, we he to trust it and beli that rything is gonna(going to) be better. Secondly, he taught me to hope. There always gonna(going to) be downs in life, it is same for ryone. But the difference is what we gonna(going to) do about it. The answer of him is to hope, to beli. So under his encouragement, I will nr give up and nr let go. Last but definay not the least, I learnt to love what I do and do what I love. According to him, this seems to be the only way to stay in the stage with a happy life. So, started from today, I will keep my eyes open and follow the spirit of St Jobs, stay gry, stay foolish.

Stanford Report, June 14, 2005

‘You’ve got to find what you love,’ Jobs says

This is the text of the Commencement address by St Jobs, CEO of Apple Comr and of Pixar Animation Studios, delivered on June 12, 2005.

I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I nr graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I’ve r gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to l you three stories from my life. That’s it. No big deal. Just three stories.

The first story is about connecting the dots.

I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?

And 17 years later I did go to college. But I ly chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents’ sings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn’t see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had sed their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I r made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn’t interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.

It wasn’t all romantic. I didn’t he a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends’ rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5?? deits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town ry Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be prless later on. Let me give you one example:

Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. Throughout the campus ry ter, ry label on ry drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didn’t he to take the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can’t capture, and I found it fascinating.

None of this had n a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh comr, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first comr with beautiful typography. If I had nr dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would he nr had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, its likely that no personal comr would he them. If I had nr dropped out, I would he nr dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal comrs might not he the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was imsible to connect the dots looking forward when

I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.

Again, you can’t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you he to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You he to trust in soming - your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatr. This approach has nr let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.

My second story is about love and loss.

I was lucky - I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our finest creation - the Macintosh - a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and ntually we had a falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him. So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire life was gone, and it was devastating.

I really didn’t know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with Did Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I n thought about running away from the valley. But soming slowly began to dawn on me - I still loved what I did. The turn of nts at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.

I didn’t see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could he r happened to me. The heiness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about rything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.

During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first comr animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of nts, Apple bought NeXT, I retuned to Apple, and the technology we dloped at NeXT is at the heart of Apple’s current renaissance. And Laurene and I he a wonderful family toger.

I’m pretty sure none of this would he happened if I hadn’t been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don’t lose faith. I’m convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You’ve got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. 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 beli is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you hen’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.

My third story is about death.

When I was 17, I read a quote that went soming like: “If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you’ll most certainly be right.” It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I he looked in the ror ry morning and asked myself: “If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?” And whenr the answer has been “No” for too many days in a row, I know I need to change soming.

Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve r encountered to me make the big chos in life. Because almost rything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrasent or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leing only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to oid the trap of thinking you he soming to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didn’t n know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor aised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor’s code for prepare to die. It means to try to l your kids rything you thought you’d he the next 10 years to l them in just a few months. It means to make sure rything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as sible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.

I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that ning I had a biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I’m fine now.

This was the closest I’ve been to facing death, and I hope its the closest I get for a few more decades. Hing lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely inlectual concept:

No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heen don’t want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has r escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life’s change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.

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 other’s opinions drown out your own inner vo. And most important, he the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the bibles of my generation. It was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch. This was in the late 1960’s, before personal comrs and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in back form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.

Stewart and his team put out sral issues of The Whole Earth Catalog, and then when it had run its course, they put out a final issue. It was the mid-1970s, and I was your age. On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road, the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so aenturous. Beneath it were the words: “Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.” It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I he always wished that for myself. And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.

Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish.

Thank you all very much.

苹果CEO乔布斯05年在斯坦福大学的演讲稿

Thank you. I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. Truth be told, I nr graduated from college. And this is the closest I've r gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to l you three stories from my life. That's it. No big deal. Just three stories.

The first story is about connecting the dots.

I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?

It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so rything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: "We he an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" They said: "Of course." My biological mother later found out that my mother had nr graduated from college and that my father had nr graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption s. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.And 17 years later I did go to college. But I ly chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' sings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had sed their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I r made.
