Visionary, inventor, innovator, a Genius: Steve Jobs


I wanted to pay my respect to passing of Steve Jobs.




After battling with pancreatic cancer one of the most deadliest kind of cancer for the past 7 years he can now rest peacefully. Wether you are Apple fan or not, the fact is that Steve Jobs was a inspirational person. He has inspired many minds and inspired us to think differently outside of the norm. Thank you for your visions and your innovations, you had a huge impact on our world and on my life.

I wanted to leave you with few quotes by Steve Jobs that will motivate you to live your life more meaningfully and live your life to the fullest doing what you LOVE and what brings you true happiness. 


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.

Being the richest man in the cemetery doesn't matter to me … Going to bed at night saying we’ve done something wonderful… that’s what matters to me.

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.


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.

--Steve Jobs

  2. The first time I watched that video almost a year ago, it helped me so much. Regardless of his company and products, he was a true inspiration who gave so much to the world...RIP.

  3. The last two days were extremely emotional at the store (and I'm sure it's like that for every Apple Store in the world). I've had people who came to shook my hand and offer me their sympathies.

  4. When I initially commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox and now each time a comment is added I
    get three emails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove me from that service?
    Many thanks!
