Thanks Steve Jobs !!!!!!!

Today I wanted to have a place to share some of the links an articles about the life of Steve Jobs.  His passion and creativity have always supported me and my dreams.  

The made computer fun for me.

Quotes:

"That's what a computer is to me: the computer is the most remarkable tool that we've ever come up with. It's the equivalent of a bicycle for our minds."

“We’re here to put a dent in the universe. Otherwise why else even be here?”

—Steve Jobs

Stanford University commencement address

Remembering that I’ll be dead soon is the most important tool I’ve ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life. Because almost everything—all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure—these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important. Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose. You are already naked. There is no reason not to follow your heart.

—Steve Jobs, Stanford University commencement address, 2005

 

Steve Jobs explains the rules for success

You need a lot of passion for what you're doing because its so hard. Without passion, any rational person would give up. 
So if youre not having fun doing it, if you dont absolutely love it, youre going to give up.
And thats what happens to most people, actually.
If you look at the ones that ended up being successful in the eyes of society, often times its the ones who love what they do, so they could persevere when it got really tough.
And the ones that didnt love it, quit. Because theyre sane, right? 
Who would put up with this stuff if you dont love it?
So its a lot of hard work and its a lot of worrying constantly.
If you dont love it, youre going to fail.
