乔布斯经典哈佛演讲_演讲稿
You've got to find what you love,' Jobs says
This is the text of the Commencement address by Steve Jobs, CEO of Apple Computer and of Pixar Animation Studios, delivered on June 12, 20xx.
I am honored to be with you today at your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world. I never graduated from college. Truth be told, this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation. Today I want to tell you three stories from my life. That's it. No big deal. Just three stories.
The first story is about connecting the dots.
I dropped out of Reed College after the first 6 months, but then stayed around as a drop-in for another 18 months or so before I really quit. So why did I drop out?
It started before I was born. My biological mother was a young, unwed college graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption. She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates, so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife. Except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl. So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking: “We have an unexpected baby boy; do you want him?” They said: “Of course.” My biological mother later found out that my mother had never graduated from college and thatmy father had never graduated from high school. She refused to sign the final adoption papers. She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would someday go to college.
And 17 years later I did go to college. But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford, and all of my working-class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition. After six months, I couldn't see the value in it. I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life and no idea how college was going to help me figure it out. And here I was spending all of the money my parents had saved their entire life. So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out OK. It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made. The minute I dropped out I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me, and begin dropping in on the ones that looked interesting.
It wasn't all romantic. I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms, I returned coke bottles for the 5 deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the 7 miles across town every Sunday night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple. I loved it. And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on. Let me give you one example:
Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country. Throughout the campus every poster, every label on every drawer, was beautifully hand calligraphed. Because I had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes, I decidedto take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this. I learned about serif and san serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great. It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found it fascinating.
None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life. But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me. And we designed it all into the Mac. It was the first computer with beautiful typography. If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or
proportionally spaced fonts. And since Windows just copied the Mac, its likely that no personal computer would have them. If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on this calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do. Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college. But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.
Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards. So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future. You have to trust in something - your gut, destiny, life, _, whatever. This approach has never let me down, and it has made all the difference in my life.
My second story is about love and loss.
I was lucky – I found what I loved to do early in life. Woz and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20. We worked hard, and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two ofus in a garage into a billion company with over 4000 employees. We had just released our finest creation - the Macintosh - a year earlier, and I had just turned 30. And then I got fired. How can you get fired from a company you started? Well, as Apple grew we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me, and for the first year or so things went well. But then our visions of the future began to diverge and eventually we had a falling out. When we did, our Board of Directors sided with him. So at 30 I was out. And very publicly out. What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.
I really didn't know what to do for a few months. I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down - that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me. I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly. I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley. But something slowly began to dawn on me – I still loved what I did. The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit. I had been rejected, but I was still in love. And so I decided to start over.
I didn't see it then, but it turned out that getting fired from Apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me. The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything. It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.
During the next five years, I started a company named NeXT, another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife. Pixar went on to create the worlds first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world. In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought NeXT, I retuned to Apple, and the technology we developed at NeXT is at the heart of Apple's currentrenaissance. And Laurene and I have a wonderful family together.
I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple. It was awful tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it. Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle.
My third story is about death.
When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like: “If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you'll most certainly be right.” It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: “If today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?” And whenever the answer has been “No” for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
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.
About a year ago I was diagnosed with cancer. I had a scan at 7:30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas. I didn't even know what a pancreas was. The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable, and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months. My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die. It means to try to tell your kids everything you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months. It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family. It means to say your goodbyes.
I lived with that diagnosis all day. Later that evening I had a biopsy, where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines, put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor. I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope the doctors started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery. I had the surgery and I'm fine now.
This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope its the closest I get for a few more decades. Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept:
No one wants to die. Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there. And yet death is the destination we all share. No one has ever escaped it. And that is as it should be, because Death is very likely the single best invention of Life. It is Life's change agent. It clears out the old to make way for the new. Right now the new is you, but someday not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away. Sorry to be so dramatic, but it is quite true.
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life. Don't be trapped by dogma - which is living with the results of other people's thinking. Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.
乔布斯演讲三个故事观后感 第3篇
尊敬的各位**、各位老师、各位同学：
大家好！我是x级2班的争气的败家子，非常荣幸**我们班48名毕业生发言。四年过去了，学校的学习和生活为我们奠定了坚实的基础，明天我们就要离开曾经憧憬向往的大学生涯，走向我们的最终归宿——社会。服务社会才是我们的最终目标，我们会投身在社会的大课堂中不断进步，在社会的大舞台上大展鸿图。再此，我**我们班的全体毕业生，感谢母校四年来对我们的培养和教育，感谢各位**和老师对我们的关爱和教诲，感谢家人对我们的付出和鼓励，感谢身边朋友带给我们的快乐和帮助。
毕业，就像一个**的句号。从此，我们告别了一段纯真的青春，一段年少轻狂的岁月，一个充满幻想的时代……毕业前的这些日子，时间过的好像流沙，想挽留，一伸手，有限的时光却在指间悄然溜走，毕业答辩，散伙席筵，举手话别，各奔东西……一切似乎都预想的到，一切又走的太过无奈。
还记得入学第一天我们的自我介绍么？
还记得为次日的比赛挑灯做准备么？
还记得我们一起逛街，一起喝酒，一起聊天，一起唱歌么？
自习室、野游、考试、获奖……一幕幕的场景就像一张张绚烂的剪贴画，串连成一部即将谢幕的电影，播放着我们的快乐和忧伤，记录着我们的青春和过往，也见证着我们的情深义重。从大一开始第一次上讲台的激动，第一次加入社团的好奇，第一次考试的紧张……到此时在为工作各种选择里彷徨，每一个人都忙忙碌碌，一切仿佛一首没写完的诗，匆匆开始就要匆匆告别。这些岁月里，大学是我们的资本，也是我们的慰藉。
班级聚餐的时候，所有的同学都在那里举杯，为过去的日子和情感，为将来的分别和感伤。昔日笑声不断的整个宿舍楼就这样在几天之内变回空楼，变成一个无限伤感的符号。想起四年以前，我们拎着简单的行李来到这里，而明天，我们重新拎起新的行李，将要开始下一站的生活。
再见了，我的宿舍，再见了，我的兄弟，再见了，我的青春，再见，我的大学。
毕业，又像一个长长的省略号。青春散场，我们等待下一场开幕。等待我们在前面的旅途里，迎着阳光，勇敢地飞向心里的梦想；等待我们在前面的故事里，就着星光，回忆这生命中最美好的四年，盛开过的花……道一声离别，送一声祝福，无论再过多少年，无论我们走到哪里，我们也不会忘记，曾经孕育过我们的这一片深情的土地。
大学时光只是人生路途中的一个小小的驿站，毕业并不**结束，而是欢呼开始，不是庆祝完成，而是宣布进步。生活总会有压力，现实总要去面对，我们要到生活的星图上去寻找自己的新位置，不管走到哪里，不管在什么岗位工作，都会继续填好人生的履历表，为母校争辉添彩。
无论我们四年是怎么走过来的，此时我们都不必埋怨和懊悔，明天开始，我们一切都将清零，又在一个起点，走向社会的大舞台。
最后，祝愿我们的老师们工作顺利，身体安康，合家幸福，记得我们还会回来看你们的。也祝福我们的同学们，四年相伴的兄弟姐妹们，一路走好，前程似锦，记得我们还和宜宾学院有个约会。
谢谢大家。
乔布斯演讲三个故事观后感 第4篇
Thank you. Apple's grown like a weed, and as you know, we've always been in Cupertino. Started in an office par, eventually, got the buildings, we are in now the corner of the ends of those buildings hold maybe 2600 or 2800 people. But we've got almost 12,000 people in the area. So we're renting buildings - not very good buildings, either at an ever-greater radius from our campus and we're putting people in those. It is clear that we need to build new campus, so we just add space. That doesn't mean we don't need the one we got, we do need it, but we need another one to augment it. So we've got a plan that let's us stay in Cupertino. And we went out and we bought some land and this land is kind of special, to me. When I was 13, I think, I called up... Hewlett and Packard were my idols. And I called up Bill Hewlett, cause he lived in Palo Alto, and there were no unlisted numbers in the phone book, which gives you a clue to my age. And he picked up the phone and I talked to him and I asked him if he'd give me some spare parts for something I was building called a frequency counter. And he did, but in addition to that he gave me something way more important. He gave a job that summer. A summer job at Hewlett-Packard, right here (on) in Santa Clara, off 280, the division that built frequency counters. And I was in heaven. Well, right around that exact moment in time, Hewlett and Packard themselves were walking on some property over here in Cupertino, in Pruneridge, and they ended up buying it. And they built their computer systems division there. And as Hewlett - Packard has been shrinking lately, they decided to sell that property and we bought it. We bought that and we bought some adjacent property that all used to be apricot trees, apricot orchards and we've got about 150 acres. And we should like to put a new campus on that so that we can stay in Cupertino. And we've come up - we've hired some great architects to work with, some of the best in the world, I think. And we've come up with a design that puts 12,000 people in one building. Think about that, that''s rather odd 12,000 people in a building, in one building. But, we've seen these office parks with lots of building and they get pretty boring pretty fast. So we'd like to do something better than that. And I'd like to take you through what we like to do. So this is supposed to work here. Here we go. Can you see this? So here is we are today, which is on Infinite Loop drive, against the intersection of D' Anza and the 280.
谢谢大家。苹果如雨后春笋般快速发展着，而Cupertino一直是我们钟爱的土壤。从开始的工业园到现在的办公大楼280号公路尽头的拐弯处，这几栋楼能容纳2600到2800名员工。可实际上我们的员工数量超过了1。不得已只能用租些差劲的写字楼给员工办公。所以我想把大家转移到离现有园区不远的一片区域。我们将用新的园区来扩充办公面积。现有园区也会继续保留，新园区还在Cupertino，因为这里对我巨有意义。大小我就是惠普创始人Hewlett和Packard的粉丝。Hewlett住在Palo Alto，13岁那年我给他打了个电话，年头所有的电话号码都印在大部头里，不好意思，暴露了我的年龄。我问他是否能送我些零件做频率计数器。他不仅答应了，还给了我一份工作。惠普的暑期实习，就在Snata Clara 280号公路旁边，我被分在计频器部门，简直像去了天堂。就在这个时候，惠普在Pruneridge买了块地，并在那里设立了计算机系统部。最近惠普并不景气，有意出售这块不动产，我们就买了下来。顺带还买下来原来的一片杏园，总面积有150英亩了。我想在哪儿建个新园区，继续留在Cupertino。我们请来最优秀的设计师，希望设计一栋能容纳12000人的大楼。一栋楼装12000人，是不是跟中国的学生宿舍一样不可思议？你们看过一些工业园区空间拥挤、设计单调，我们希望改变这一切。给大家看看园区蓝图，看得见么？苹果总部就在这里280号公路和D' Anza十字路口的交汇处。
Mr Jobs, yeah, you drawn as print, that's high-tech we've. Use your finger. Just point in the air...
乔总，你可以用演示器，我们这儿也是有高科技的。
What we've done is we bought this land right here. We try to buy the apartments at the corner but they are not for sale, so we couldn't buy those. And we bought everything else. And the campus we like to build there is one building holds 12,000 people. And it is pretty amazing building. Let me show it to you. It's a little like a spaceship landed, there it is, and it's got this gorgeous courtyard in the middle, but a lot more. So let's take a close look at it. It's a circle. It's curved all the way around. If you build things, this is not the cheapest way to build something. There is not a straight piece of glass in this building. It's all curved. We've used our experience making retail buildings all over the world now, and we know how to make the biggest pieces of glass in the world for architectural use. We can make it curve all the way around the building. And you can see what it look like. It is pretty cool. Again, today, about 20% of the space is landscaping, several big asphalt parking lots. So 20% of this is landscape, we want to completely change this. And we want to make 80% of landscape, and the way we're gonna do this is we're gonna put most of the parking underground. So we can have 80% of landscape, and you can see what we've in mind. I mean there is nothing like this in the property now. It's pretty bad. Today there are 3700 trees on the property we'd like to just almost double that. We've hired one of the senior arborists from Stanford actually who is very good with indigenous trees around this area. So we'd like to plant a lot of trees including some apricot orchards. Again you can see what it might be like. This is some of the infrastructure. The main building, we have parking underneath the main building. That's not enough unfortunately. We have a parking structure here as well. The building's four stories high as is the parking structure. There's nothing high here at all. We want the whole place human scale. It's actually about the same as we have in Cupertino right now.. An energy center. We deal with - people using, sitting at computers all day writing software. And if the power goes out on the grid we get to send everybody home. So we have to have backup power to power the place in the event brownouts and stuff. And I think what we're gonna end up doing is making the energy center our primary source of power. Because we can generate power with Natural Gas and other ways that can be cleaner and cheaper and use the grid as our backup. We've got an auditorium because we put on presentations. Much like we did yesterday but we have to go to San Francisco to do them. Fitness center and some R&D facilities, these are just things that where we do testing and we need some buildings to test in and there's hardly any people in them. So this is roughly the kind of thing we're thinking about. We think about 12,000 people, I put 13,000 on the slides, just because we may make a little luckier than 12,000. We're up roughly 40% in people . What the site has been used for already and we're increasing space to million square feet. So 20% increase in space. The landscaping though increases by 350%, which is nice, trees by 60%. The surface parking goes down by 90%. And so I think the overall feeling of the place is gonna be zillion times better than it is now with all the asphalt. And the building footprint actually goes down by 30%. So, we wanna take the space and in many cases making it smaller. We're putting more of desirable things on the space and that's what we like to do. So just wanna give you a look at it. This is a cafe. We have cafe as our facilities. And this cafe will, you know, feed the better part of the 3,000 people sitting. That's what you need when you 12,000 people in the campus. So that's what we're looking at. I'd love to answer your questions if you have any.
我们买下这块地，本来还想买这初拐角，可对方不卖，我们又不能强拆，所以只得放弃。我们打算在园区里建一栋楼，容纳12000人。听起来很炫，看起来更炫。华丽吧！像不像太空飞船？中间还有个大院子，还不止呢。让我们凑近了看，办公室的外观是个圆环。体形优美，造价不菲，所有的玻璃都是弧形的线条。我们建造苹果零售店的经验派上用场了。硕大的弧形玻璃难不倒我们。让玻璃墙绕场一周。是不是很酷。目前整个园区只有20%的绿化，浪费了不少地方。我们向来一次乾坤大挪移。把停车场统统发配到地下，让绿化面积从20%暴增到80%。目的不言而喻，我们课不想像别的园区那样被人诟病。目前园区里有3800棵树，未来会翻一倍。我们聘请斯坦福的园林设计师来设计园区。除了杏树，还会种其他植物。这是建成后的样子。这是我们的主楼，设有地下停车场。可惜地下停车场不够用，所以我们另设了一处停车点。新办公楼是一座四层圆形建筑，中间有一个大庭院。摩天大厦我不感冒，我喜欢矮建筑。保持和Cupertino现有建筑的高度一致。我们的工作要对着电脑一刻不停的写程序，所以正常的工作离不开能源中心。要是没电，大家只能回家洗了睡。所以需要后备电源，能源中心将用天然气或其他绿色能源发电。我们希望将其作为主要的电力来源，把国家电网用作后备电源。这里将修建一个大礼堂，我们就不用像昨天那样跑到旧金山去开会了。这里是健身中心和研发大楼，这个地方专门用来做测试，里面木有员工。这就是我们的设想。苹果现有12000员工，但可能增加到13000人。将来这里可以多容纳40%的员工，增加20%的使用面积，这样总面积大道了310万平方英尺。绿化面积增长350%，这个就厉害啦，植树量增长60%，地上停车面积减少90%。你会自上这片土地的，这比一滴沥青给力多了。建筑占地面积将减少30%。减少建筑面积。这样有更多的空间留给想象力去发挥。这里是间咖啡厅，这个可以有，你懂的。它能容纳3000人同时就餐。足足有12000名员工在此贡献智慧，所以我们需要那么大的容量。我的介绍到此为止，有什么问题吗？
Thank you, Mr jobs. And we're really excited that you call Apple our home. If you go to your shop at anything they have a T-shirt that says the mother ship has landed, and if you look at this picture, definitely the mother ship has landed here in Cupertino. Is there any questions or comments from council colleagues, council member Wang?
谢谢你的演讲，很高兴苹果能在Cupertino安家。现在都有印有“苹果飞船”的T恤卖了。看看印花，亮点是这飞船的登陆地就在Cupertino。各位参议员同僚有什么要问的吗？王议员？
Hi, Steve.
乔总，您好
Hi.
Quick question, I think people are curious to know what the city residence can benefit from this new campus.
貌似大家都比较关心民众能从新园区中受益吗？
Well, as you know, we're the largest tax payer in Cupertino, so we'd like to continue to stay here and pay taxes. That's number one. Because if we can't, then we go have to somewhere like Mountain View. And we take up people with us, we give up and over years sell the land here, and the largest tax base would go away. That wouldn't be good for Cupertino.
我们是Cupertino的纳税大户，你懂得，我们很高兴能留下来继续缴税，这点最重要。如果新园区项目流产，我们不得不另栖他处，比如Mountain View.。我们只有带着员工离开，把地卖掉。我想Cupertino不会希望缴税大户离开。
No of course not.
当然不想了。
And wouldn't be good for us either, so that's number one. And number two, we employ some really talented great people and across the whole age spectrum. A lot of people right out of collage, hire a lot of Stanford grads, etc, and you know people in their 50s and even 60s, like me I'm in my 50s. So I think there's a lot of them wanna live around where they work. We have a lot of people riding bikes to work now. We also run a bus service. We got 20 buses that run on bio-diesel fuel. They are the cleanest bus that you can buy. We've got 20 of them doing routes all the way from San Francisco to Santa Cruz bringing people in. So, those are the kinds of things could benefit Cupertino. And influx of tax base, and influx of very talented people who are, you know, getting paid. We put them in a fairly affluent group of people, and many of them would choose to make Cupertino their personal home as well as professional home. I think there is a lot there plusia whole lot of trees.
我们也不想，所以这是第一条。此外，我们雇佣了很多优秀人才，各个年龄阶段的人都有。我雇了很多大学毕业生，比如斯坦福大学，还有50、60岁的员工，像我就是。在这里安家会是他们的首选。现在就有很多员工选择骑自行车去上班，我们也有公共交通系统，20辆烧生物燃料的班车，是目前最环保的车。这20辆班车目前正在旧金山和圣克鲁兹之间来回运行。这些都能让Cupertino受益。给Cupertino带来稳定的税收，优秀的人才，这些人收入颇丰，他们多半还会选择定居此地（拉动消费），当然，还有大片的数目和景观咯。
Sure. Those are great things. Thank you be more specific. Do we get free Wi-Fi or something like that?
谢谢，确实很赞。我还想知道苹果是否可以提供一些免费得服务，比如WIFI？
Well, see I'm always i'm a simpleton. I've always had the view that we pay taxes and the city should do those things. Now, if we can get out of paying taxes, I'd be glad to put up Wi-Fi.
我是个直肠子，我认为既然我们交税了政府就改提供这些服务。如果你给我们免税，我们就提供免费得WI-FI。
Wish you use our sales tax, part of that to provide iPad of something to our residence and then get a free Wi-Fi.
那给你免掉一些销售税，为市民免费提供iPad和Wi-Fi。
Yeah, I think we bring a lot more than free Wi-Fi and so.
我相信我们创造的价值比免费得Wi-Fi多得多。
Totally agree, well, thank you so much.
完全同意，非常感谢。
Sure.
不客气。
Council member Mahoney?
Mahoney议员有问题么？
Yeah, so, first of all, it was interesting, you throwback to HP. As 35-year HP employee, most of it on the Cupertino campus in those buildings there, obviously felt sorry when I heard that they were consolidating moving. But now that we've seen your plans, you know, the words spectacular would be an understatement, and I think that everybody is gonna appreciate what's clearly is gonna be the most elegant headquarters, you know, at least in the US that I've seen. So we definitely appreciate that the work is gone into it and look forward to working with you moving through the process.
你回首了惠普的往事，让我深有感触。我在惠普工作过35年，一直呆在惠普位于Cupertino的园区里，所以惠普离开Cupertino，我很舍不得。现在看到你的蓝图，我是心驰神往啊。大家都觉得这里就像是美丽的潘多拉星球，至少是美国的潘多拉。你们选择了Cupertino，我们非常荣幸，也会尽最大的努力帮助你们。
Thank you. I think we do have a shot of building the best office building in the world. And I really do think architecture students will come here to see this. I think it could be that good.
十分感谢，我们的建筑没准真会成为全球最好的办公楼。到时候各大建筑院校的学生都会过来“膜拜”，我还是挺有信心的。
Appreciate.
了不起了不起。
Yeah, thank you. Council member Chang?
谢谢谢谢。张议员？
乔布斯演讲三个故事观后感 第5篇
今天，我只说三个故事，不谈大道理，三个故事就好。
第一个故事，是关于人生中的点点滴滴如何串连在一起。
我在里德学院(Reed College)待了六个月就办休学了。到我退学前，一共休学了十八个月。那么，我为什么休学?
这得从我出生前讲起。
我的亲生母亲当时是个研究生，年轻未婚妈妈，她决定让别人收养我。她强烈觉得应该让有大学毕业的人收养我，所以我出生时，她就准备让我被一对律师夫妇收养。但是这对夫妻到了最后一刻反悔了，他们想收养女孩。所以在等待收养名单上的一对夫妻，我的养父母，在一天半夜里接到一通电话，问他们“有一名意外出生的男孩，你们要认养他吗?”而他们的回答是“当然要”。后来，我的生母发现，我现在的妈妈从来没有大学毕业，我现在的爸爸则连高中毕业也没有。她拒绝在认养文件上做最后签字。直到几个月后，我的养父母保证将来一定会让我上大学，她的态度才软化。
十七年后，我上大学了。但是当时我无知地选了一所学费几乎跟史丹佛一样贵的大学，我那工人阶级的父母将所有积蓄都花在我的学费上。六个月后，我看不出念这个书的价值何在。那时候，我不知道这辈子要干什么，也不知道念大学能对我有什么帮助，只知道我为了念这个书，花光了我父母这辈子的所有积蓄，所以我决定休学，相信船到桥头自然直。
当时这个决定看来相当可怕，可是现在看来，那是我这辈子做过最好的决定之一。
当我休学之后，我再也不用上我没兴趣的必修课，把时间拿去听那些我有兴趣的课。
这一点也不浪漫。我没有宿舍，所以我睡在友人家里的地板上，靠着回收可乐空罐的退费五分钱买吃的，每个星期天晚上得走七哩的路绕过大半个镇去印度教的Hare Krishna神庙吃顿好料，我喜欢Hare Krishna神庙的好料。
就这样追随我的好奇与直觉，大部分我所投入过的事务，后来看来都成了无比珍贵的经历(And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be pricelelater on)。举个例来说。
当时里德学院有着大概是全国最好的书写教育。校园内的每一张海报上，每个抽屉的标签上，都是美丽的手写字。因为我休学了，可以不照正常选课程序来，所以我跑去**写课。我学了serif与sanserif字体，学到在不同字母组合间变更字间距，学到活字印刷伟大的地方。书写的美好、历史感与艺术感是科学所无法掌握的，我觉得这很迷人。
我没预期过学这些东西能在我生活中起些什么实际作用，不过十年后，当我在设计第一台麦金塔时，我想起了当时所学的东西，所以把这些东西都设计进了麦金塔里，这是第一台能印刷出漂亮东西的计算机。
如果我没沉溺于那样一门课里，麦金塔可能就不会有多重字体跟等比例间距字体了。又因为Windows抄袭了麦金塔的使用方式，因此，如果当年我没有休学，没有去上那门书写课，大概所有的个人计算机都不会有这些东西，印不出现在我们看到的漂亮的字来了。当然，当我还在大学里时，不可能把这些点点滴滴预先串连在一起，但在十年后的今天回顾，一切就显得非常清楚。
我再说一次，你无法预先把点点滴滴串连起来;只有在未来回顾时，你才会明白那些点点滴滴是如何串在一起的(you can‘t connect the dots looking forward; you can only connect them looking backwards)。所以你得相信，眼前你经历的种种，将来多少会连结在一起。你得信任某个东西，直觉也好，命运也好，生命也好，或者因果报应。这种作法从来没让我失望，我的人生因此变得完全不同。
我的第二个故事，是有关爱与失去。
我很幸运-年轻时就发现自己爱做什么事。我二十岁时，跟Steve Wozniak在我爸**车库里开始了苹果计算机的事业。我们拼命工作，苹果计算机在十年间从一间车库里的两个小伙子扩展成了一家员工超过四千人、市价二十亿美金的公司，在那事件之前一年推出了我们最棒的作品-麦金塔计算机(Macintosh)，那时我才刚迈入三十岁，然后我被解雇了。
我怎么会被自己创办的公司给解雇了?
嗯，当苹果计算机成长后，我请了一个我以为在经营公司上很有才干的家伙来，他在头几年也确实干得不错。可是我们对未来的愿景不同，最后只好分道扬镳，董事会站在他那边，就这样在我30岁的时候，公开把我给解雇了。我失去了整个生活的重心，我的人生就这样被摧毁。
有几个月，我不知道要做些什么。我觉得我令企业界的前辈们失望-我把他们交给我的接力棒弄丢了。我见了创办HP的David Packard跟创办Intel的Bob Noyce，跟他们说很抱歉我把事情给搞砸了。我成了公众眼中失败的示范，我甚至想要离开硅谷。
但是渐渐的，我发现，我还是喜爱那些我做过的事情，在苹果计算机中经历的那些事丝毫没有改变我爱做的事。虽然我被否定了，可是我还是爱做那些事情，所以我决定从头来过。
当时我没发现，但现在看来，被苹果计算机开除，是我所经历过最好的事情。成功的沉重被从头来过的轻松所取代，每件事情都不那么确定，让我**进入这辈子最有创意的年代。
接下来五年，我开了一家叫做NeXT的公司，又开一家叫做Pixar的公司，也跟后来的老婆(Laurene)谈起了恋爱。Pixar接着制作了世界上第一部全计算机动画电影，玩具总动员(Toy Story)，现在是世界上最成功的动画制作公司。然后，苹果计算机买下了NeXT，我回到了苹果，我们在NeXT发展的技术成了苹果计算机后来复兴的.核心部份。
我也有了个美妙的家庭。
我很确定，如果当年苹果计算机没开除我，就不会发生这些事情。这帖药很苦口，可是我想苹果计算机这个病人需要这帖药。有时候，人生会用砖头打你的头。不要丧失信心。我确信我爱我所做的事情，这就是这些年来**我继续走下去的唯一理由(I’m convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did)。
你得找出你的最爱，工作上是如此，人生伴侣也是如此。
你的工作将占掉你人生的一大部分，唯一真正获得满足的方法就是做你相信是伟大的工作，而唯一做伟大工作的方法是爱你所做的事(And the only way to do great work is to love what you do)。
如果你还没找到这些事，继续找，别停顿。尽你全心全力，你知道你一定会找到。而且，如同任何伟大的事业，事情只会随着时间愈来愈好。所以，在你找到之前，继续找，别停顿。
我的第三个故事，是关于**。
当我十七岁时，我读到一则格言，好像是“把每一天都当成生命中的最后一天，你就会轻松自在。(If you live each day as if it was your last, someday you‘ll most certainly be right)”
这对我影响深远，在过去33年里，我每天早上都会照镜子，自问：“如果今天是此生最后一日，我今天要做些什么?”每当我连续太多天都得到一个“没事做”的答案时，我就知道我必须有所改变了。
提醒自己快死了，是我在人生中面临重大决定时，所用过最重要的方法。因为几乎每件事-所有外界期望、所有的名声、所有对困窘或失败的恐惧-在面对**时，都消失了，只有最真实重要的东西才会留下(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)。提醒自己快死了，是我所知避免掉入畏惧失去的陷阱里最好的方法。人生不带来、死不带去，没理由不能顺心而为。
一年前，我被诊断出癌症。我在早上七点半作断层扫描，在胰脏清楚出现一个肿瘤，我连胰脏是什么都不知道。医生告诉我，那几乎可以确定是一种不治之症，预计我大概活不了三到六个月。医生建议我回家，好好跟亲人们聚一聚，这是医生对临终病人的标准建议。那**你得试着在几个月内把你将来十年想跟小孩讲的话讲完。那**你得把每件事情搞定，家人才会尽量轻松。那**你得跟人说再见了。
我整天想着那个诊断结果，那天晚上做了一次切片，从喉咙伸入一个内视镜，穿过胃进到肠子，将探针伸进胰脏，取了一些肿瘤细胞出来。我打了镇静剂，不醒人事，但是我老婆在常她后来跟我说，当医生们用显微镜看过那些细胞后，他们都哭了，因为那是非常少见的一种胰脏癌，可以用手术治好。所以我接受了手术，康复了。
这是我最接近**的时候，我希望那会继续是未来几十年内最接近的一次。经历此事后，我可以比先前**只是纯粹想象时，要能更肯定地告诉你们下面这些：
没有人想死。即使那些想上天堂的人，也想活着上天堂。
但是**是我们共同的终点，没有人逃得过。这是注定的，因为**很可能就是生命中最棒的发明，是生命交替的媒介，送走老人们，给新生**出道路。现在你们是新生代，但是不久的将来，你们也会逐渐变老，被送出人生的舞台。抱歉讲得这么戏剧化，但是这是真的。
你们的时间有限，所以不要浪费时间活在别人的生活里。不要被教条所局限--盲从教条就是活在别人思考结果里。不要让别人的意见淹没了你内在的心声。最重要的，拥有追随自己内心与直觉的勇气，你的内心与直觉多少已经知道你真正想要成为什么样的人(have the courage to follow your heart and intuition. They somehow already know what you truly want to become)，任何其它事物都是次要的。
在我年轻时，有本神奇的杂志叫做《Whole Earth Catalog》，当年这可是我们的经典读物。那是一位住在离这不远的Menlo Park的Stewart Brand发行的，他把杂志办得很有诗意。那是1960年代末期，个人计算机跟桌上出版还没出现，所有内容都是打字机、剪刀跟拍立得相机做出来的。杂志内容有点像印在纸上的*面Google，在Google出现之前35年就有了：这本杂志很理想**，充满新奇工具与伟大的见解。
Stewart跟他的团队出版了好几期的《Whole Earth Catalog》，然后很自然的，最后出了停刊号。当时是1970年代中期，我正是你们现在这个年龄的时候。在停刊号的封底，有张清晨乡间小路的照片，那种你四处搭便车冒险旅行时会经过的乡间小路。
在照片下印了行小字：求知若饥，虚心若愚(Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish)。
那是他们亲笔写下的告别讯息，我总是以此自许。当你们毕业，展开新生活，我也以此祝福你们。
求知若饥，虚心若愚(Stay Hungry, Stay Foolish)。
非常谢谢大家
