| Such are the times | A month has passed since the last news item was posted - glorifying some geeky american who earned a bit of money by selling various gadgets.

| Steve Jobs 1955-2011 |  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.

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.
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 others' 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. |
