01:11

this fun lesson with Steve Jobs

01:17

I'm honored to be with you today for

01:20

your commencement from one of the finest

01:21

universities in the world truth be told

01:28

I never graduated from college and this

01:33

is the closest I've ever gotten to a

01:35

college graduation today I want to tell

01:40

you three stories from my life that's it

01:42

no big deal

01:43

just three stories the first story is

01:48

about connecting the dots I dropped out

01:52

of Reed College after the first six

01:54

months but then stayed around as a drop

01:56

in for another 18 months or so before I

01:58

really quit so why did I drop out it

02:03

started before I was born my biological

02:06

mother was a young unwed graduate

02:09

student and she decided to put me up for

02:11

adoption she felt very strongly that I

02:14

should be adopted by college graduates

02:16

so everything was all set for me to be

02:19

adopted at Birth by a lawyer and his

02:20

wife except that when I popped out they

02:24

decided at the last minute that they

02:26

really wanted a girl so my parents who

02:29

were on a waiting list got a call in the

02:31

middle of the night asking we've got an

02:34

unexpected baby boy do you want him they

02:38

said of course my biological mother

02:42

found out later that my mother had never

02:45

graduated from college and that my

02:47

father had never graduated from high

02:48

school she refused to sign the final

02:51

adoption papers she only relented a few

02:55

months later when my parents promised

02:57

that I would go to college this was the

03:00

start in my life and 17 years later I

03:06

did go to college but I naively chose a

03:09

college that was almost as expensive as

03:11

Stanford and all of my working-class

03:14

parents savings were being spent on my

03:16

college tuition after six months I

03:19

couldn't see the value in it I had no

03:22

idea what I wanted to do with my life

03:23

and no idea how college was going to

03:26

help me figure it out and here I was

03:28

spending all the money my parents

03:30

save their entire life so I decided to

03:34

drop out and trust that it would all

03:36

work out okay it was pretty scary at the

03:39

time but looking back it was one of the

03:41

best decisions I ever made the minute I

03:45

dropped out I could stop taking the

03:48

required classes that didn't interest me

03:49

and begin dropping in on the ones that

03:52

looked far more interesting it wasn't

03:56

all romantic I didn't have a dorm room

03:58

so I slept on the floor in friends rooms

04:00

I returned coke bottles for the 5 cent

04:03

deposits to buy food with and I would

04:05

walk the seven miles across town every

04:07

Sunday night to get one good meal a week

04:10

at the Hari Krishna temple I loved it

04:13

and much of what I stumbled into by

04:16

following my curiosity and intuition

04:18

turned out to be priceless later on of

04:20

course it was impossible to connect the

04:23

dots looking forward when I was in

04:24

college but it was very very clear

04:26

looking backwards 10 years later again

04:29

you can't connect the dots looking

04:31

forward you can only connect them

04:33

looking backwards so you have to trust

04:36

that the dots will somehow connect in

04:38

your future you have to trust in

04:40

something your gut destiny life karma

04:42

whatever because believing that the dots

04:45

will connect down the road will give you

04:48

the confidence to follow your heart even

04:50

when it leads you off the well-worn path

04:52

and that will make all the difference

04:55

sometime life sometimes life's going to

04:57

hit you in the head with a brick don't

04:59

lose faith I'm convinced that the only

05:02

thing that kept me going was that I

05:04

loved what I did you've got to find what

05:06

you love and that is as true for work as

05:09

it is for your lovers your work is going

05:12

to fill a large part of your life and

05:13

the only way to be truly satisfied is to

05:16

do what you believe is great work and

05:18

the only way to do great work is to love

05:20

what you do if you haven't found it yet

05:23

keep looking and don't settle as with

05:27

all matters of the heart you'll know

05:29

when you find it and like any great

05:31

relationship it just gets better and

05:33

better as the years roll on so keep

05:35

looking don't settle when I was 17 I

05:40

read a quote that went something like if

05:43

you live each day

05:44

as if it was your last someday you'll

05:46

most certainly be right it made an

05:51

impression on me and since then for the

05:53

past 33 years I've looked in the mirror

05:56

every morning and asked myself if today

05:58

were the last day of my life what I want

06:01

to do what I am about to do today and

06:03

whenever the answer has been no for too

06:06

many days in a row I know I need to

06:08

change something

06:10

remembering that I'll be dead soon is

06:12

the most important tool I've ever

06:14

encountered to help me make the big

06:15

choices in life because almost

06:18

everything all external expectations all

06:21

pride all fear of embarrassment or

06:23

failure these things just fall away in

06:26

the face of death leaving only what is

06:28

truly important remembering that you are

06:31

going to die is the best way I know to

06:34

avoid the trap of thinking you have

06:36

something to lose you are already naked

06:39

there is no reason not to follow your

06:41

heart no one wants to die even people

06:47

who want to go to heaven don't want to

06:48

die to get there and yet death is the

06:52

destination we all share no one has ever

06:55

escaped it your time is limited so don't

06:58

waste it living someone else's life

07:01

don't be trapped by Dogma which is

07:03

living with the results of other

07:05

people's thinking don't let the noise of

07:08

others opinions drown out your own inner

07:09

voice and most important have the

07:12

courage to follow your heart and

07:14

intuition they somehow already know what

07:16

you truly want to become everything else

07:20

is secondary

07:24

when I was young there was an amazing

07:27

publication called the Whole Earth

07:29

Catalog which was one of the Bible's of

07:31

my generation and then when it had run

07:34

its course they put out a final issue

07:37

it was the mid-1970s and I was your age

07:40

on the back cover of their final issue

07:44

was a photograph of an early morning

07:46

country road the kind you might find

07:49

yourself hitchhiking on if you were so

07:51

adventurous beneath it were the words

07:54

stay hungry stay foolish

07:57

it was their farewell message as they

07:59

signed off stay hungry stay foolish and

08:03

I have always wished that for myself and

08:07

now as you graduate to begin anew I wish

08:11

that for you stay hungry stay foolish

08:15

thank you all very much

08:17

[Applause]

08:23

I'm honored to be with you today for

08:25

your commencement from one of the finest

08:27

universities in the world commencement

08:29

from one of the finest universities in

08:31

the world a commencement is a formal

08:33

word that means the beginning of

08:35

something for example the commencement

08:37

of the war

08:38

but it is also the ceremony at a

08:40

university college or high school during

08:43

which degrees or diplomas are given to

08:46

students who have graduated the word

08:48

fine means good and its superlative form

08:51

finest means best example this is one of

08:54

Picasso's finest pieces of artwork the

08:56

place where the speech is taking place

08:58

and the University he is referring to is

09:00

Stanford which is a university located

09:03

in Silicon Valley near San Francisco in

09:05

the state of California and is

09:07

considered as one of the world's best

09:08

truth be told I never graduated from

09:12

college and this is the closest I've

09:16

ever gotten to a college graduation

09:17

truth be told you used to say that one

09:20

is stating the truth about something

09:22

that one might have a reason to hide

09:24

example I told the hiring person at the

09:26

job interview truth be told I don't have

09:28

a lot of practical experience in this

09:30

but I'm a fast learner the first story

09:32

is about connecting the dots again you

09:37

can't connect the dots looking forward

09:38

you can only connect them looking

09:40

backwards connect the dots to draw a

09:44

conclusion or understand something by

09:46

relating different things that you know

09:48

example the movie was so hard to follow

09:50

that I just couldn't completely

09:52

understand it I need a second watch to

09:54

connect the dots from certain events in

09:55

the movie but jobs use of the phrase in

09:57

this case is more about following your

09:59

intuition and taking risks even if it

10:02

doesn't make sense now it will all make

10:04

sense in the future when you look back

10:05

and connect the dots I dropped out of

10:08

Reed College

10:09

I dropped it out of eCollege

10:14

I dropped out of Reed College after the

10:17

first six months but then stayed around

10:19

as a drop-in for another 18 months or so

10:21

before I really quit drop out of college

10:23

stayed around as a drop-in to drop out

10:26

as to quit school University or any

10:28

formal course to stay around is to delay

10:31

leaving a place that is to be in a place

10:33

for a little longer before going

10:35

somewhere else to drop in literally

10:38

means to make an informal and brief

10:39

visit job is making a play on words he

10:41

dropped out of college

10:43

the formal classes he was required to

10:44

take so he could drop in in a more

10:47

informal experimental and relaxed way on

10:50

the classes he thought he would enjoy my

10:52

biological mother was a young unwed

10:54

graduate student and she decided to put

10:56

me up for adoption unwed a not so common

11:00

word meaning not married related to this

11:02

word is wedded which means married

11:04

example

11:05

she's an unwed mother graduate student

11:07

someone who's already earned a four-year

11:09

degree and is not pursuing a master's

11:11

degree or PhD an undergraduate is a

11:14

student who has not yet received a

11:16

degree example graduate students are

11:18

more likely to get a job at the company

11:19

than undergraduates put me up for

11:22

adoption this phrase means to make a

11:23

child available for adoption so

11:25

everything was all set for me to be

11:27

adopted at Birth by a lawyer and his

11:29

wife be all set to be set means to be

11:32

ready you can use all to emphasize this

11:35

meaning example the team is all set for

11:37

tomorrow's big game except that when I

11:39

popped out they decided at the last

11:41

minute that they really wanted a girl

11:43

pop out to emerge or appear surprisingly

11:47

from the inside of something also use

11:48

figuratively

11:49

for example his eyes popped out when he

11:51

saw his perfect test score but I naively

11:53

chose a college that was almost as

11:55

expensive as Stanford and all of my

11:58

working-class parents savings were being

12:00

spent on my college tuition naive if

12:03

someone is naive their lack of

12:04

experience causes them to underestimate

12:06

the situation

12:08

failing to see the danger of some things

12:10

with the suffix ly this adjective

12:13

becomes an ever example I naively

12:15

believed that I could start studying for

12:17

the test a day before tuition the fee or

12:20

amount of money a university charges a

12:22

student to attend example they've been

12:24

saving money for their son's college

12:26

tuition for years

12:27

one of the best decisions I ever made it

12:30

was one of the best decisions I ever

12:32

made it was one of the best decisions I

12:38

ever made I didn't have a dorm room I

12:40

didn't have a dorm room I didn't have a

12:45

dorm room and much of what I stumbled

12:47

into by following my curiosity and

12:49

intuition turned out to be priceless

12:51

later on stumble into stumble literally

12:54

means to trip without falling but

12:57

figuratively to stumble into means to

12:59

get yourself involved in something by

13:01

accident for example the famous jerry

13:03

garcia quote

13:04

truth is something you stumble into when

13:06

you think you're going someplace else

13:07

you have to trust in something your gut

13:10

destiny life karma whatever trust your

13:13

gut your guts are literally your

13:15

intestines and to trust your gut is a

13:18

common expression meaning to believe and

13:20

follow your instincts example I'm so

13:22

glad I trusted my gut and dropped out of

13:24

school to pursue a career as an artist

13:25

hey there I have a quick question for

13:28

you before we watch the rest of the

13:30

lesson Steve Jobs talks a lot in this

13:32

video about finding your passion and

13:35

doing the type of work that you love so

13:38

my question is what is your passion

13:41

and what kind of work would you really

13:43

love to do if you could have the choice

13:46

of doing anything take a moment to

13:49

comment down below and answer that

13:52

question I look forward to reading and

13:54

responding to them alright let's get

13:56

back into the lesson to follow your

13:57

heart even when it leads you off the

13:59

well-worn path and that will make all

14:02

the difference it leads you off the

14:04

well-worn path if something leads you

14:06

somewhere it makes you take a different

14:09

direction the word off as in lead off

14:12

emphasizes the idea of abandoning a

14:14

certain path and taking a new and even

14:16

worse one example he had a bright future

14:19

as a basketball player but his friends

14:20

led him off his path to a life of drugs

14:22

and nightlife a well-worn path is a path

14:24

that's walked on by a lot of people for

14:27

example if you visit a new country and

14:29

you go to places where other tourists

14:31

don't usually go you're going off the

14:33

well-worn path in this case the

14:35

well-worn path would be doing what

14:36

everyone is expected to do which is

14:39

studying for a degree out of college

14:40

but job says that if you don't love it

14:43

then follow your heart and do something

14:45

you're truly passionate about even if it

14:47

means quitting school hit you in the

14:49

head with a brick hit you in the head

14:51

with a brick sometimes life's going to

14:56

hit you in the head with a brick

14:57

sometimes life is going to hit you in

14:59

the head with a brick jobs here is using

15:01

metaphoric language to convey the

15:03

concept that life is sometimes difficult

15:04

if I hits you in the head with a brick

15:07

it means that an unfortunate event in

15:09

your life happens if you haven't found

15:11

it yet keep looking and don't settle

15:13

settle to begin to feel comfortable in a

15:17

new place job position etc this verb is

15:20

many times accompanied by the

15:22

prepositions in or in to example he

15:25

settled into his new position as a

15:26

manager of the company but what jobs

15:28

means by if you haven't found it yet

15:30

keep looking and don't settle is that

15:33

you should keep trying to find something

15:35

that you love doing and not just make

15:37

yourself content with a job or career

15:39

that doesn't completely make you happy

15:41

all external expectations all pride all

15:44

fear of embarrassment or failure pride a

15:47

feeling that makes a person believe they

15:49

are worthwhile important and or that

15:51

they possess something valuable often

15:52

the eyes of others to be proud of

15:54

something is not bad but Jobs is saying

15:57

that pride can block us from realizing

15:58

our potential because we're scared of

16:00

looking bad in the eyes of others

16:02

example he needed help but his pride

16:04

wouldn't let him ask for it don't be

16:06

trapped by Dogma which is living with

16:08

the results of other people's thinking

16:10

Dogma a belief or set of beliefs that is

16:12

accepted by people without logic or

16:14

questioning what Jobs means by don't be

16:16

trapped by Dogma is that you should

16:18

question whatever set of beliefs you've

16:20

been made to accept and be courageous

16:22

and looking for other alternatives that

16:25

allow you to do what you love

16:26

he then reinforces this idea by saying

16:28

don't let the noise of others opinions

16:30

drown out your own inner voice this is

16:33

encouragement to not be affected by what

16:35

other people say instead follow your own

16:37

belief of what's best for you your inner

16:40

voice is your own voice which you hear

16:42

in your head or more importantly your

16:45

heart or intuition and then when it in

16:48

run its course they put out a final

16:50

issue issue besides meeting a problem or

16:53

some

16:54

or topic of conversation another meaning

16:56

of this word is the version of a

16:58

newspaper or magazine that is published

17:00

at a particular time example he showed

17:02

me a 1993 issue of the magazine

17:04

on the back cover of their final issue

17:07

was a photograph of an early morning

17:09

country road the kind you might find

17:11

yourself hitchhiking on if you were so

17:14

adventurous to hitchhike to try to get a

17:16

ride in a passing vehicle by holding out

17:18

your hand with your thumb up and now as

17:21

you graduate to begin anew I wish that

17:24

for you stay hungry stay foolish stay

17:28

hungry stay foolish this is one of Steve

17:30

Jobs most memorable quotes if you're

17:32

hungry or have hunger you have an

17:35

uncontrollable desire to achieve

17:36

something like a dream or ambition a

17:39

foolish person is someone with silly or

17:42

senseless behavior but in this case Jobs

17:44

uses this word positively implying that

17:47

staying foolish is doing things that

17:49

might seem foolish to others but that

17:51

they're the best things you could be

17:53

doing to achieve your dream in jobs case

17:56

it was doing and creating things that

17:57

seemed foolish because nobody thought

17:59

they were possible in other words stay

18:02

hungry stay foolish basically means

18:04

don't be satisfied with anything less

18:06

than your dreams and do whatever it

18:08

takes to achieve them even when looking

18:10

bad in the process awesome job today I

18:12
