One of the things that made an impact on me was Randy Pausch’s saying “You won’t find passion through things but through people”.
Things are replaceable and can be bought and re-bought, people cannot.
I was watching the following video, especially the last minute (after the break):
Around the 4:20 minute mark, Bill Gates on Steve Job’s passing “Well I hope I have a bit more time, Malaria eradication… I need a couple more decades here to fulfill that opportunity, so I don’t think of myself as fading away, but it reminds you to pick important stuff, because you only have a limited time“.
While everybody respects Steve Jobs as being one of the greatest inventors in history, what Bill Gates has done for the world is nothing short of magnificent. No longer the richest man in the world, he chose to give back, I think giving back to the betterment of others, makes life much more enriching than the accumulation of wealth.
While not all of us have a couple billion dollars, each and every one of us can do their part to first give. Justrythis, give someone else value, once a week, or even once a month, you’ll be surprised at how great it makes you feel.
And most importantly, feel inspired:
