Steve Jobs died this week and to most people he was just a really rich computer guru who made billions on apple. All this information is true, but what most people don’t know is that he was a college drop out, ran off to India, became a Buddhist, and was so broke in the 70’s ate free meals with the Hare Krishna's. He was one of the founders of Mac computers, pushed out, started again, and the
n eventually his new company bought out by Mac. He didn’t have the education to be who he became, he didn’t have the upbringing, he just had passion. He followed what was true for him and he made his mark on this earth. One of my favorite quotes of his “We don’t get a chance to do that many things, and every one should be really excellent. Because this is our life” Steve Jobs 1955-2011
Here is his talk about living before you die. So worth the watch
