Steve Jobs’ 2005 Standford Commencement Address

After listening to this lecture, I know that what I learned in school is not inapplicable, it is just that I cannot apply it now. Believe in your choices, even if life encounters setbacks, as long as you stick to your beliefs, everything will get better. I like the part where he says time is limited, we all have different times, the potential for accidents and early death. So timing is something we have to do, don't let the clamor of other people's opinions drown out your inner voice when we're all susceptible to being influenced by others to change what we decide to do, and most importantly, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you really want to be. Everything else is secondary.
Stay hungry, stay foolish. This is Steve Jobs' last message to graduates. Einstein once said that the difference between a genius and a fool is that a genius sets limits for himself. So Steve Jobs' exhorted us to never settle for immediate success, stay hungry, look for the next challenge, don't limit yourself and make yourself a fool, because there's nothing impossible. No matter what you do, as long as you keep doing it, there is hope for success.
