00:04Truth be told, I never graduated from college.
00:10I dropped out of Reed College after the first six months.
00:14Because I had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes,
00:18I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this.
00:21It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture.
00:28None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life.
00:33But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer,
00:37it all came back to me.
00:39And we designed it all into the Mac.
00:42You've got to find what you love.
00:44And that is as true for work as it is for your lovers.
00:48Your work is going to fill a large part of your life.
00:50And the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work.
00:54Because almost everything, all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure,
01:02these things just fall away in the face of death, leaving only what is truly important.
01:07Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
01:13Don't be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
01:18Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.
01:22And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
01:26They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
01:31The only way to do great work is to love what you do.
01:34If you haven't found it yet, keep looking and don't settle.
01:39As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.
01:44People say you have to have a lot of passion for what you're doing.
01:48And it's totally true.
01:49And the reason is because it's so hard that if you don't, any rational person would give up.
01:57It's really hard.
01:58And you have to do it over a sustained period of time.
02:01So if you don't love it, if you're not having fun doing it and you don't really love it,
02:05you're going to give up.
02:06So keep looking.
02:08Don't settle.
03:01And fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife.
03:04Don't settle for her.
03:07Don't settle for her.
03:23Don't settle for her.
03:25You
