"Your life is limited so don't live some one else"s life " love that
Its fact life is your and you choose what you do and create something amazing
Okay but why is he talking all about himself in the commencement speech since he doesn't want the graduates to live in someone else's life..his actions contradicts his words..or his words contradicts his actions..cal Newport says don't do what Steve says but do what he does.!

Who’s still watching in 2022...?
i'm here. great speech.
yeah boii
Who’s still making the same stupid comments in 2020?
Yes..rip steve jobs
Melbin Mt I’m doing an assignment for a class rn and I gotta watch this
When he talked about death and beating cancer, and wanting to live decades more, it filled my soul with sorrow. RIP Steve Jobs.
Then he thought he could fruit away pancreatic cancer🤣 that's the equivalent of someone with lung cancer smoking more cigarettes to get rid of it, the dude was nuts, but damn did he know how to sell his engineers projects
I always come back to this. Still brings me tears after this many years. It serves as a reminder to push myself forward, be better than the day before
Thank you Steve Jobs. Thanks for saving Apple, the reason I found my passion in computer science and technology
Hey so what have you done since last year?
I’d love for someone to call me out like that too
Steve lived another 6 years after giving this outstanding speech in 2005. What a gift and contribution to humanity he made. Thank you, Steve.
He is the worst of the worst. An epitome to greed and selfishness as seen in his generation. The generation that not only had selfish attitudes, but doubled down and created another generation that wants society to conform to their every want and desire to disastrous consequences. He is the disease to humanity.
Great product but human race is getting less creative, lethargic and anti-thesis of what he wanted in these grads.
TheBaldr Which companies did you start, build and run? What revolutionary, fuk-off products have you helped create? Your comments epitomise part of the darkness the internet allows. If you were face to face w Steve, his widow, other family members or friends you would never utter those words.
WTF? The i-phone???? It's ruining societ and our children. Ask any educator! He stole everything else.
@@Nautilus1972 Can you verify what you mean by stole everything else? Thank you.
hate him or love him, but this man did something very few humans could, he changed the world, he had love and passion for his work and dedicated his beeing to his work to be successful. it took him failure after failure to create success but he did, he was willing to fight cancer and still moved on to progress where most people had given up. he's a true pioneer and one of a kind. this speech is beyond greatness.

Awful advice.

Wow who can follow this
@@Profile.4 who the fuck are you to say it
Seven that’s why your an unknown troll on Utube and Steve Jobs changed the world by age 30😂😂😂
It has been almost 1 year since the first time when I listened to this Speech. At that time I had to use spanish subtitles, after spending hours and hours listening to Steve's speeches and reading books about him I learned english. And now I can understand the whole message of this video, it is priceless. Thank You Steve, even when you are not alive your words and wisdom will be here to put a dent in the Universe making this world a better place. Keep looking and don't settle!
+Tu Sancho, what are you even talking about, wtf so random?
Diego Saul: My brother Scott worked with Jobs during his first incarnation with Apple, prior to his public oust. Scott said that Jobs was and ass. But he loved him. The years with Apple changed my brothers life.
Well done... 🇰🇪
@@ZackMorrisMyHero .. not an sjw or anything but... what the actual fuck.
I am still watching; Some concepts don't change-And his ability to "see the big picture and design for it', hasn't; go
This guy of all inventors deserves a song, don't you think? Bob Dylan ought to write it, but he's very busy counting his own billions. BTW note how the cameraman zooms in on the girl showing the cleavage? Some things never change.
To this day, still one of the greatest speeches of all time
I’m still watching and it’s 2023 now!❤
I listen to this every time I’m going through hard times! Thank you Steve
I'm seriously crying at how great this is. Its very inspiring and it affects me in many ways.
16 years... It is crazy how quickly time flies! I remember watching this in elementary 😢
That nostalgia and golden years of Apple design... priceless.
This is classic ... watched it over and over again, still inspiring
I sometimes come back here to listen to this when I need a little inspiration, a little push to keep me moving forward so one day in the future I can look back and connect the dots. To anyone reading it in 2023 and beyond - stay hungry stay foolish!
Best speech ever it doesn't get old even if the years pass by....
THIS WAS THE BEST SPEECH I HAVE EVER WATCHED!
me too
U should watch hitler speech kid
You are right
Thank you "Crazy Angel"...did you hear Kayasaki say when he heard Steve first speak, He heard "Angels begin to sing ?" Sure sounds like the title of a song to me! May I have your permission to UTILIZE YOUR OPINION /COMMENT, into a rough draft of one of my new songs ? I am still watching and listening to this guy; This guy of all inventors deserves a song, don't you think? Bob Dylan ought to write it, but he's very busy counting his own billions. BTW note how the cameraman zooms in on the girl showing the cleavage? Some things never change. LyndaFayeSmusic@gmail.com
Good but not the best. You should watch BTS delivering speech at the United Nations.
Whenever life has me down or I’m in a rough spot I look to this video to uplift and inspire me again. Steve has truly enriched my life and an unfathomable amount of others. Steve faced an incredible amount of adversity throughout his life but managed to still be so successful that he happened to change the world.
Love this speech. It has motivated me so much with my personal journey and academic studies. I think it's a good idea to watch this every morning before you start working.
Jobs would've been 61 today. Rest in peace.
I am also drop out in school in college.
Rip
64
If only he had the sense to get cancer treatment...
go
I am watching this DEEPA SINGH: This guy of all inventors deserves a song, don't you think? Bob Dylan ought to write it, but he's very busy counting his own billions. BTW note how the cameraman zooms in on the girl showing the cleavage? Some things never change.
Very impressive. It's sad he's no longer with us.
He is still with us! What he gave to us lives on, as will he.

Formbi Chiss why?
What a powerful speech! I’ m still watching in 2019
Every word in the speech is so succinct and meaningful, Steve jobs had so much clarity about life. Connecting the dots is such a colloquial phrase today. I watch this speech whenever I need motivation
I've never had to hear something so much as I needed to hear this right now. Thank-you Steve.
you are a woman. Accept that.
I have watched this video more than 10 times still it motivates even today .Thankyou Steve!!!
What a heartfelt speech. It’s truly amazing how this man inspired me to pursue what I am really passionate about. Upon watching his speech, I have realized that I need to focus on the things that excite me, the ones that keep me alive. 🤗
So inspiring! Who is watching in 2018?

I am watching this again after years have passed since the first time I viewed it. It actually comes at a perfect time for me as I battle with siblings who are offering their misguided opinions on who and what I should focus on, and what types of jobs I should work at, putting my life's passion and work on hold. I am a published author and a creator of a star character named Brighton that is destined to bring much needed Light and unity to the world. Watching this speech again has bolstered my conviction and determination to follow my passion for this character and all of the future books, animated feature films and other related products that are going to inspire the world, and help children's charities along the way. I will never back down, I will never give up and I will continue to believe in the gifts and talents that God gave me to make a difference in our world. From this day forward I will drown out the negative voices that have tried to minimize my dreams. And I will let them go as I continue on the path of Light that God is leading me on. I am grateful for everything as it has led me to this moment in time. I look forward to each and every moment unfolding as I walk, then skip, then soar into my destiny. My heart is full of gratitude and I am shining onward.
What a brilliant man. Third time I've seen this and it won't be the last. I think we can learn--even more than from his brilliance--from his passionate persistence. Thank you for the endless inspiration.
Indeed
I watched in 2019, and I may watch it several more times. It is more inspiring today and I think it will be moreso tomorrow.
One of the best commencement speeches!! You can’t expect anything less coming from a man of visionary and innovative. Most great leaders lived their lives by pushing boundaries of how far they can achieve greatness. Steve was a man of science and intervention. Each sentence of this speech filled with faith, beliefs, and if all failed you got nothing to lose anyways. You were born with nothing and can’t take anything with you when you exit. Cheers 🥂
7 years after his passing, but still inspire generations. RIP Steve ❤️
Every single time I need motivation, I find myself watching this speech. and with each time I've picked up something new & inspirational from it.
Thank you Steve Jobs!
Great video, thanks for all your words. They are pricless. Still watching even 2020
Greg Braden I cannot thank you enough for the knowledge I have learned from you. I have been in pain due for surgery soon. I prayed like you showed me. And I believe I am healing today. First time I walked with no hip pain. Amazing!
Thanks, excellent Video.
you're*
Whenever I feel I cant do anything, this speech boosts my confidence up and everything just works out fine.
the speech so moving...its one of the best i have ever had..I now understand fully that its all about the legacy you leave behind when you go
Whenever I think I was lost in my journey, I always come back here. the connect the dots is indeed a great help for me
Can watch this any number of times
Me too
Same
Anytime I want to motivate myself or my students
This man is/was/still will be a true inspiration for so many people. Words can not express the amount of gratitude from my heart for him conveying his stories. Thank you Steve so much for this. It is truly a life changing message when you listen to what he is saying.
Still watching June 2019 and will be still watching, it leads to the destiny
One of the most amazing speech ever . I have watch it few times before and i' m pretty sure it won't be the last one .
"And here I was, spending all the money my parents had saved their entire lives..."
I'm sure everybody felt that.
transcript:
I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell 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 everything 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 have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?" They said: "Of course." My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and that my father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. 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 naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings 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 help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved 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 ever 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 have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5¢ deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every 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 priceless 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 every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didn't have 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 even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible 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 have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. 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.
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 eventually 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 adult 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 David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me - I still loved what I did. The turn of events 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 have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. 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 computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple's current renaissance. And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.
I'm pretty sure none of this would have 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 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.
My third story is about death.
When I was 17, I read a quote that went something 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 have looked in the mirror every 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 whenever the answer has been "No" for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
Remembering that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything - all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure - these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something 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 even 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 advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.
I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening 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 it's the closest I get for a few more decades. Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:
No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever 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 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.
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 computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and polaroid cameras. It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along: it was idealistic, and overflowing with neat tools and great notions.
Stewart and his team put out several 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 adventurous. Beneath it were the words: "Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish." It was their farewell message as they signed off. Stay Hungry. Stay Foolish. And I have 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.
Deploying Kindness I
Awesome that you took time to write it down.
Thank you!!
I don't understand: why did you take the time to write this down?
Deploying Kindness mm
This speech dwarfs so many other speeches - and speakers. Even the crowd takes some time to recognise the gravitas of what they just heard when he finishes.
Inspiring in its simplicity - amazing in its messages.
One of the best inspirational speech..yet simple and very easy to understand..RIP steve..see you up there...
".....I've been rejected but still in love"
-Such an honest confession...
I am totally speechless hearing this wonderful lecture. I can not express my feelings in a single word.
Watching this video in the morning to start my day with a positive impact.
Best speech ever made. RIP Steve Jobs
Eva Martane it is a good inspiring speech but if it is the best ever i doubt it.
i think one of the things that made Jobs great was the fact that he was realistic. In this he doesnt dance around such an unpleasant topic as death and mortality, he gives a rather beautiful explanation of why death exists.
I have audio of that in my car and listen it regularly .. It always motivates me to do what i want to do ... It always make me realize that we have nothing to lose .... It makes me prepared for the fact that life is going to hit me hard in my head ... Dont know why but these words always take me away from materialism
This was awesome!
Enjoyed watching from Kenya 🇰🇪
While I watched the video for the very first time I thought I am not wasting my time.. everything happening in my life right now..is worth it.😊
Who is watching this in 2024 😮😊
I always come back here for strength and inspiration since 2020.
I'm crying whilst watching this now. Bless you, Steve Jobs! ❤
“Keep looking and don’t settle.”
the best speech i have ever heard.....lov it..
These speeches are big because sometimes people don’t have these words and we glad to hear it. Wisdom from someone who has gone through things and share their experiences to do better.
This speech resonated within me. Thank you, Steve Jobs
I saw it again in 2019 so yes, it's so current and still inspiring!
Inspiring speech. Watch if you lack motivation. This speech is worth 15 minutes of life. Whatever you think of Steve, he tells about simple things in a way that makes people think about their living. Best speech.
I'm interested in my future, career, and the college which I'll enter later. So I often watch college graduation speech, and this is the best speech that I've ever seen. After watching this video, I realized even if sometimes life hit me in the head with a brick, I should not lose faith. And I agree with the fact that the only thing that keeps someone going is to love what he or she does. Thanks for giving this awesome speech, it motivates me a lot.
still i cries watching this .. after started watching it from my childhood
I watch it every time I feel down. It is the most motivating speech ever delivered in last 1000 years...
Maybe that's another reason why the apple logo is bitten. "Stay hungry, stay foolish."
May be😂😂😂
An apple serves no purpose if it's not consumed.
I have watched this video n times and each time, It never failed to inspire me. RIP Steve!!
One of my favorite speeches I always come back to it
I wonder if these college kids realized the wisdom that were in this speech... Wisdom not knowledge... The kind of thinking that is the result of living a life, taking chances and failure. Failure makes you appreciate success and triumph. Steve Jobs knew what he was talking about when he talked about the relationship between life and death. You get busy living or get busy dying....
The final story of "death" has greatly influenced me...the fact that i am gonno die anyway someday ,gives me the final push to break through anything which may be holding me back from doing something i love....thank u steve jobs
rocky johnson Through faith in Jesus Christ you will overcome death
A message to all put the dots together
I had that thought since I was 13
What a motivational speech! Thank you so much!
2020 and still speaks volumes... truly 1 of a kind of inspiration... Rest In Peace bud
I added this video to my watch later list back in 2007 I saw it 1/2 but Wow Today I saw it whole.
I’m still watching this 2030
One of the best speeches I've ever heard for sure. I always wonder how such a smart people could share their stories and ideas in such an easy manner using the words that anyone can understand. Thank you Steve for everything you've done for our society
I listened to this speech many times, but still find it very inspiring.
This would never get old...
#priceless
Steve Jobs is probably the best "idea guy" the world has seen yet.
Bollocks! He 'borrowed' the mouse and GUI from Parc Xerox .. he ignored networking computers - just like Bill Gates - until Novell showed the world what computers were really for.
Wrong.
That's Einstein
I'd go with Tesla on that one. Nikola Tesla, not Elon's Tesla.
What is that even supposed to mean? ._.
This is the best speech. It instills in your mind invaluable points to consider by demonstrating them from his life events.
Whenever I feel low about life, I come to this and listen to this man and realise how our problems are too insignificant. Thanks Jobs.
When you have a dream to chase nothing can stop you... 💯💯
The most motivating speech
We would watch this while we were in college 2014-2016 it’s 2024 and we’re still watching this speech will always have a special place in our heart. 🌴🌴🌴
Some very sage advice from an extraordinary human being. I hope those kids were listening.
"You can't connect the dots looking forward. You can only connect them looking backwards."
I come back regularly to listen to this
so do i...
Me too
There are no words to describe how much this speech has inspired me and helped me connect my dots.
How can I connect my dots ?
Something always bring me back to watch this....
Learn from a great man
Who dared to dream bigger than life it's self.
Long live the free Onces
“Don’t settle” sounds great as long as those heading this advice are mature and responsible enough to realize they need to work, provide for their loved ones while they are still searching for a better thing and refusing to settle!
Well said
ALWAYS going back to these wonderful words of advice. Prepare to live as if you would die...all things take a different perspective.
This speech never gets old......
One of the Truest speech one has ever delivered....
Just a simple man having the simple ability of having the courage to follow his heart.👏
My notes on the speech (in markdown):
Jobs tell 3 stories to form a narrative around his life and the decisions he made:
# *Connecting the dots*
- Jobs bio mother wanted her adopted by college graduates
- He went to a really expensive college, spending hard earned money by his parents
- Dropped out after one semester. Really difficult decision but started taking classes of stuff that actually interested him
- Difficult in other ways too: No money, bad food, went to Hare Krishna temple for one good meal a week
- Following curiosity and intuition was priceless
- Learned typography in Reed college
- Looked completely useless at the time; 10y later, it was invaluable for making the first Mac
- *Impossible to connect the dots looking forward, only by looking backward*
- You need to put your trust in **something**
# *Loss and love*
- Jobs recounts his tale of Apple's creation and his very public exit from the company
- Felt ashamed, lost and wanted to drop it all off and leave SV
- Realized he still loves what he does
- There is freedom in being a beginner: Made two big companies, found love
- NeXT was purchased by Apple and it all came full circle: The tech they had made at NeXT was to now be implemented in Apple computers
- *Sometimes, you need bitter medicine to become healthy again*
- You have to find what you love: The only way to do great work is to do what you love
- "*Keep looking; don't settle*"
# *About death*
- If today was the last day in your life, would you still do what you're doing?
- NB: This is normally a very cheesy thing to say: yes, I don't like what I'm doing and yes, I'd rather be doing something else. But I have obligations to meet and duties to perform and to do so, I *have* to do things that I don't like. However, Jobs' way is better. See next point
- If the answer to this question is no for many days at a time, it's a good indication that your took a wrong turn along the way
- Jobs got very close to death because of cancer diagnosis. No one wants to die and yet, *"Death is the destination we all share"*.
- *"Your life is limited so don't waste it living others people's lives"*
- Conquer dogma: the result of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of others opinions drown out your inner voice.
- Coming back to *connecting the dots*: you need to place your trust in something because you can only connect the dots looking back. So, place your trust in intuition and your heart. Have the courage to do it and if you don't, then cultivate it. They're the only things that know what you want and who you want to be.
*Stay hungry, stay foolish*.
