Yesterday, I posted The Last Lecture, today, I was told that the below video was the last speech Dr. Randy Pausch gave. The best thing I took away from it was:
“We don’t beat the grim reaper by living longer. We beat the reaper by…
Live your dreams: This man is extremely inspirational…
Dr. Randy Pausch – love it.
Key takeaways:
1) Go and achieve your childhood dreams, experience is what you get when you don’t get what you want
2) When your doing a bad job and no one points it out to you, that means they’ve given up on you
3) The brick walls are not there to block our way…
This clip was brought to my attention by Winnie Lai of Clinicbook. A great and passionate entrepreneur. Love this clip by Simon Sinek (after the break), because he teaches to ask “why?” first before you do anything.
Most people start a business to make money. While I don’t discount that your business needs to be kept financially afloat, if you really want to build a great company…
Don’t be realistic. Why would you be realistic?
“It’s unrealistic to walk into a room, flip a switch and have lights turn on. Fortunately, Edison didn’t think so.”
It’s unrealistic to give humans the ability to Continue reading
You have to have a lot of passion for what you do because its so hard that if you don’t, any rational person would give up. And you need to do it over a sustained period of time.
The ones that are successful in the eyes of society, are successful because they love what they do so they could persevere when it got tough, the ones that didn’t love it quit because they are sane. What rational person would keep doing what their doing over the long term if they didn’t like it?

Video after the break:
People say that people aren’t born equal into this world.
It’s my belief that regardless of your situation, if you believe that everything will work out for itself in the end, then it will. And you may ask “Well what about the starving children in Africa who die due to circumstances outside of their control?”.
I believe that those who were not given much of a chance in their life in the real world, the flow of the universe will somehow give them the chance in the afterlife.
Confucius said that:
“He who says he can, and he who says he can’t are both usually right”
This was the song that moved me today. Video after the break:
Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish. By Steve Jobs.
Praised as one of the best speeches ever written.
“Remembering You’ll Soon Be Dead Is the Most Important Tool to Help Make the Big Choices in Life”
Video after the break:
Everyone wants to achieve greatness in life, and everyone has greatness that lies deep inside them, but only few end up realizing this potential. I think this is because:
1) Most people give up before finding what it is that they truly want to do, and what they love to do.
2)Even fewer work hard enough to achieve their aspirations once they have found them.
Success comes only to those who work hard enough, and take consistent actions to achieving their goals and dreams.
