Thank you.
2
Thank you.
3
I'm Honored to be with you today for your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world.
4
Truth be told, I never graduated from college.
5
And this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation.
6
Today, I want to tell you three stories from my life.
7
That's it.
8
No big deal.
9
Just three stories.
10
The first story...
11
is about connecting the dots.
12
I dropped out of Reed College after the first six months, but then stayed around as a drop -in for another 18 months or so before I really quit.
13
So why'd I drop out?
14
It started before I was born.
15
My biological mother was a young, unwed graduate student and she decided to put me up for adoption.
16
She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates So everything was all set.
17
for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife.
18
except that when I popped out they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl.
19
So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking We've got an unexpected baby boy.
20
Do you want him?
21
They said, "Of course."
22
My biological mother found out later that my mother had never graduated from college
23
and that my father had never graduated from high school.
24
she refused to sign the final adoption papers.
25
She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would go to college.
26
This was the start.
27
in my life.
28
- And 17 years later, I did go to college.
29
But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford.
30
and all of my working class parent savings were being spent on my college tuition.
31
After six months, I couldn't see the value in it.
32
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.
33
And here I was, spending all the money my parents had saved their entire life.
34
So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out okay.
35
It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back, It was one of the best decisions I ever made.
36
The minute I dropped out, I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me
37
and begin dropping in on the ones that looked far more interesting.
38
It wasn't all romantic.
39
I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends rooms.
40
I returned Coke bottles for the five -cent deposits to buy food with.
41
and I would walk the seven miles across town every Sunday night
42
to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple.
43
I loved it.
44
And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on.
45
let me give you one example Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country,
46
Throughout the campus, every poster, every label on every drawer was beautifully hand -calligraphed.
47
Because I had dropped out and didn't have to take the normal classes, I decided to take a calligraphy class to learn how to do this.
48
I learned about serif and sans serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations about what makes great typography great.
49
It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture.
50
And I found it fascinating.
51
None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life.
52
But 10 years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, It all came back to me.
53
And we designed it all into the Mac.
54
It was the first computer with beautiful typography.
55
if I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts.
56
And since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal computer would have them.
57
Thank you.
58
If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on that calligraphy class, and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do.
59
Of course, it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college.
60
But it was very, very clear looking backwards ten years later.
61
Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward.
62
You can only connect them looking backwards.
63
So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
64
You have to trust in something, your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever.
65
Because believing that the dots will connect down the road, will give you the confidence to follow your heart even when it leads you off the well -worn path.
66
and that will make all the difference.
67
Thank you.
68
My second story is about love and loss.
69
- Thank you.
70
I was lucky.
71
I found what I loved to do early in life.
72
Was and I started Apple in my parents garage when I was 20.
73
We worked hard
74
and in 10 years Apple had grown from just the two
75
of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4000 employees.
76
We just released our finest creation, the Macintosh, a year earlier, and I just turned 30.
77
And then I got fired.
78
How can you get fired from a company you started?
79
Well?
80
As Apple grew, we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me.
81
And for the first year or so, things went well.
82
But then our visions of the future began to diverge, and eventually we had a falling out.
83
When we did, our board of directors sided with him.
84
And so at 30, I was out.
85
and very publicly out.
86
What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.
87
I really didn't know what to do for a few months.
88
I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down.
89
that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me.
90
I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce, and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly.
91
I was a very public failure and I even thought about running away from the valley.
92
But something slowly began to dawn on me.
93
I still loved what I did.
94
- Okay.
95
The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit.
96
I'd been rejected, but I was still in love.
97
Thank you.
98
And so I decided to start over.
99
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.
100
The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again less sure about everything.
101
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
102
Another company named Pixar and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife.
103
Pixar went on to create the world's first computer animated feature film, Toy Story.
104
and is now the most successful animation studio in the world.
105
In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought next, and I returned to Apple, and the technology we developed it next is at the heart of Apple's current renaissance.
106
And Lorene and I have a wonderful family together.
107
I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple.
108
It was awful tasting medicine.
109
But I guess the patient needed it.
110
sometime life sometimes life's gonna hit you in the head with a brick Don't lose faith.
111
I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did.
112
You've got to find what you love.
113
And that is as true for work as it is for your lovers.
114
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.
115
And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.
116
If you haven't found it yet, keep looking and don't settle.
117
as with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.
118
And like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.
119
So keep looking.
120
don't settle.
121
Thank you.
122
My third story is about death.
123
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.
124
It made an impression on me.
125
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, what I want to do,
126
what I am about to do today.
127
And whenever the answer has been no for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
128
Remembering
129
that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've
130
ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life because almost everything All external expectations,
131
all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure, These things just fall away in the face of death.
132
leaving only what is truly important, Remembering
133
that you are going to die is the best way I
134
know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.
135
You are already naked.
136
There is no reason not to follow your heart.
137
About a year ago, I was diagnosed with cancer.
138
I had a scan at 7 :30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas.
139
I didn't even know what a pancreas was.
140
The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer that is incurable.
141
and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months.
142
My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order.
143
which is doctor's code for prepare to die.
144
It means to try and tell your kids everything.
145
You thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them.
146
in just a few months.
147
It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family.
148
It means to say your goodbyes.
149
Thank you.
150
I live with that diagnosis all day.
151
Later that evening I had a biopsy where they stuck an endoscope down my throat through my stomach and into my intestines.
152
put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor.
153
I was sedated.
154
but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope, the doctor started crying because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer.
155
that is curable with surgery.
156
I had the surgery.
157
And thankfully, I'm fine now.
158
This was the closest I've been to facing death.
159
and I hope it's the closest I get for a few more decades.
160
Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than
161
when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept.
162
No one wants to die.
163
Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there.
164
And yet, death is the destination we all share.
165
No one has ever escaped it.
166
And that is as it should be because death is very likely the single best invention of life.
167
It's life's change agent.
168
It clears out the old to make way for the new.
169
Right now, the new is you.
170
But someday, not too long from now, you will gradually become the old, and be cleared away.
171
Sorry to be so dramatic, but it's quite true.
172
Your time is limited.
173
So don't waste it living someone else's life.
174
Don't be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
175
Don't let the noise of others opinions drown out your own inner voice.
176
and most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
177
they somehow already know what you truly want to become.
178
Everything else is secondary.
179
Thank you.
180
When I was young, There was an amazing publication called the Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the Bibles of my generation.
181
It was created by a fellow named Stuart Brand not far from here in Menlo Park
182
and he brought it to life with his poetic touch.
183
This was in the late 60s, before personal computers and desktop publishing So it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and Polaroid cameras.
184
It was sort of like Google in paperback form 35 years before Google came along.
185
It was idealistic.
186
overflowing with neat tools and great notions.
187
Stewart and his team put out several issues of the Whole Earth Catalog.
188
And then, when it had run its course, they put out a final issue.
189
It was the mid -1970s and I was your age.
190
On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road
191
the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous.
192
Beneath it were the words, stay hungry Stay foolish.
193
It was their farewell message as they signed off.
194
Stay hungry.
195
Stay foolish.
196
And I have always wished that for myself.
197
And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.
198
Stay hungry, stay foolish.
199
Thank you all very much.

Consigli per la Pratica
Per migliorare la vostra pronuncia inglese attraverso il discorso di Steve Jobs, provate a seguire queste indicazioni di shadowing in inglese:
- Ascoltate attentamente il ritmo e l'intonazione mentre Jobs parla. Prestate attenzione alle emozioni nella sua voce, che rendono il discorso avvincente.
- Dopo aver ascoltato una frase, ripetetela immediatamente. Questo vi aiuterà a imitare la sua pronuncia e a migliorare il vostro modo di parlare.
- Fate attenzione alle pause: Jobs utilizza pause strategiche per enfatizzare punti importanti. Praticare le pause vi renderà più espressivi.

La grammatica di questo video
Le strutture che chi parla usa di più, con le parole esatte del video:
| Struttura | Nel video |
|---|---|
| Forma passiva be + participio passato — conta ciò che accade, non chi lo fa | be told · was born · should be adopted |
| Present perfect have/has + participio passato — un’azione passata che conta ancora adesso | I've ever gotten · haven't found · have looked |
| Frasi relative who / which + frase — un’informazione in più su una persona o una cosa | someone who I · woman who would · people who want |
Cos'è la tecnica dello Shadowing?
Shadowing è una tecnica di apprendimento delle lingue supportata da studi scientifici, originariamente sviluppata per la formazione dei traduttori professionisti e resa popolare dal poliglotta Dr. Alexander Arguelles. Il metodo è semplice ma potente: ascolti un audio in inglese di madrelingua e lo ripeti immediatamente ad alta voce — come un'ombra che segue il parlante con un ritardo di solo 1–2 secondi. A differenza dell'ascolto passivo o degli esercizi di grammatica, lo shadowing costringe il tuo cervello e i muscoli della bocca a elaborare e riprodurre simultaneamente i modelli di discorso reale. La ricerca dimostra che migliora significativamente la precisione della pronuncia, l'intonazione, il ritmo, il discorso connesso, la comprensione dell'ascolto e la fluidità del parlato — rendendolo uno dei metodi più efficaci per la preparazione alla prova di speaking dell'IELTS e per la comunicazione reale in inglese.
