00:02:42.080 important have the courage to follow your heart and intuition they somehow 00:02:42.080 --> 00:02:45.110 already know what you truly want to become 00:02:54.620 --> 00:02:59.060 I stand up on my desk to remind myself that we must constantly look at things 00:02:59.060 --> 00:03:01.100 in a different way 00:03:10.180 --> 00:03:13.540 just when you think you know something you have to look at it in another way 00:03:13.540 --> 00:03:16.629 even though it may seem silly or wrong 00:03:16.629 --> 00:03:17.669 you must try 00:03:52.300 --> 00:03:55.300 boys you must strive to find your own voice 00:03:56.140 --> 00:04:00.700 because the longer you wait to begin the less likely you are finding it all 00:04:00.700 --> 00:04:03.460 Thoreau said most men lead lives of quiet desperation 00:04:03.460 --> 00:04:04.940 don't be resined to that 00:04:07.460 --> 00:04:08.220 breakout 00:04:09.600 --> 00:04:14.980 I suddenly had this kind of thing wash over me where I thought imagine chasing 00:04:14.980 --> 00:04:20.970 that and not getting it and getting it finally in you're 80's or your 90's 00:04:20.970 --> 00:04:27.690 with all of life behind you and realizing what an unbelievable waste of 00:04:27.690 --> 00:04:28.800 your 00:04:28.800 --> 00:04:32.600 it can't fill you up it will never if that's a hole that you have that won't fill it 00:05:11.820 --> 00:05:12.840 I imagined 00:05:12.850 --> 00:05:16.900 another one of me you know an old man kind of going like oh my God where did 00:05:16.900 --> 00:05:19.900 my life go what have I done 00:05:39.220 --> 00:05:42.900 reed college at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction 00:05:42.910 --> 00:05:48.370 in the country throughout the campus every poster every label on every drawer 00:05:48.370 --> 00:05:53.290 was beautifully and Calla graft because i had dropped out and didn't have to 00:05:53.290 --> 00:05:54.970 take the normal classes 00:05:54.970 --> 00:05:58.540 I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this 00:05:58.540 --> 00:06:03.370 I learned about serif and sans serif typefaces about varying the amount of 00:06:03.370 --> 00:06:06.820 space between different letter combinations about what makes great 00:06:06.820 --> 00:06:09.160 typography great 00:06:09.160 --> 00:06:14.200 it was beautiful historical artistically subtle in a way that science can't 00:06:14.200 --> 00:06:17.200 capture and I found it fascinating 00:06:20.870 --> 00:06:26.750 none of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life but 10 00:06:26.750 --> 00:06:31.650 years later when we were designing the first macintosh computer in all came back 00:06:34.280 --> 00:06:36.840 and we designed it all into the mac 00:06:36.840 --> 00:06:39.940 it was the first computer with beautiful typography 00:06:39.940 --> 00:06:43.600 if I had never dropped in on that single course in college 00:06:43.600 --> 00:06:46.990 the mac would have never had multiple typefaces are proportionally spaced 00:06:46.990 --> 00:06:48.050 fonts 00:07:00.360 --> 00:07:03.960 if I had never dropped out I would have never dropped in on that calligraphy 00:07:03.960 --> 00:07:07.710 class and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they 00:07:07.710 --> 00:07:09.110 do 00:07:16.900 --> 00:07:20.320 of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in 00:07:20.320 --> 00:07:23.919 college but it was very very clear looking backwards 00:07:23.919 --> 00:07:25.179 ten years later 00:07:40.129 --> 00:07:44.360 and if you don't bring your idea here when you die all of us will suffer 00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:49.129 because we've been deprived of your genius because you allowed but to keep 00:07:49.129 --> 00:07:52.279 you in the bleachers of not pursuing your greatness you take it to your grave 00:07:52.279 --> 00:07:54.519 with you 00:08:05.880 --> 00:08:07.040 I was lucky 00:08:07.040 --> 00:08:11.990 I found what I love to do early in life waz (wozniak) and i started apple in my parent's 00:08:11.990 --> 00:08:13.340 garage when I was 20 00:08:13.340 --> 00:08:17.420 we worked hard and in 10 years Apple grown from just the two of us in the 00:08:17.420 --> 00:08:21.080 garage into a two billion dollar company with over 4,000 employees 00:09:00.840 --> 00:09:05.579 go confidently in the direction of your dreams and live the life that you've 00:09:05.579 --> 00:09:07.199 imagined 00:09:10.259 --> 00:09:15.629 if you can't summon up the energy the excitement the enthusiasm for something 00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:23.000 your life every day is going to be a drag to wake up to 00:09:24.779 --> 00:09:28.739 when you crawl out from underneath the covers every morning and you sit on the edge of 00:09:28.739 --> 00:09:30.959 the bed 00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:32.500 you have a choice before you 00:09:35.140 --> 00:09:38.360 decide whatever you want to do that you are now 00:09:38.369 --> 00:09:44.100 going to become actively involved right now exploring the possibilities for you 00:09:44.860 --> 00:09:48.220 that you're going to look at it and do just a little bit of it right now decide 00:09:50.620 --> 00:09:51.790 decide to do it now 00:09:54.680 --> 00:09:57.760 there's no guarantees you are going to show up tomorrow 00:10:00.040 --> 00:10:04.439 there are a lot of people who were here yesterday that they're not here today there are a 00:10:04.439 --> 00:10:06.899 lot of opportunities that were around yesterday 00:10:06.899 --> 00:10:08.039 they're not here today 00:10:13.059 --> 00:10:17.289 oh you can wait but you know what abraham lincoln said well good things might 00:10:17.289 --> 00:10:20.979 come to those who wait but only the things that have been left over by those 00:10:20.979 --> 00:10:22.079 who hustled 00:10:34.630 --> 00:10:39.130 when I was young there was an amazing publication called the whole earth 00:10:39.130 --> 00:10:42.770 catalog which was one of the Bible's of my generation 00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:47.500 it was created by a fellow named Stewart Brand not far from here in menlo park 00:10:48.180 --> 00:10:51.180 and he brought it to life with this poetic touch 00:10:51.180 --> 00:10:54.450 this was in the late sixties before personal computers and desktop 00:10:54.450 --> 00:10:55.290 publishing 00:10:55.290 --> 00:10:59.070 so it was all made with typewriters scissors and polaroid cameras 00:10:59.610 --> 00:11:04.140 it was sort of like Google in paperback form 35 years before Google came along 00:11:05.200 --> 00:11:09.620 it was idealistic overflowing with neat tools and great notions 00:11:10.700 --> 00:11:14.280 Stuart and his team put out several issues of the whole earth catalog and 00:11:14.280 --> 00:11:17.730 then when it run its course they put out a final issue 00:11:18.620 --> 00:11:21.600 it was the mid-nineteen seventies and I was your age 00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:54.460 on the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning 00:11:54.470 --> 00:11:55.850 country road 00:11:55.850 --> 00:11:58.819 the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so 00:11:58.819 --> 00:12:02.300 adventurous beneath it were the words 00:12:02.300 --> 00:12:07.790 stay hungry stay foolish it was their farewell message as they signed off 00:12:08.389 --> 00:12:10.790 stay hungry stay foolish
