2
That's it. No big deal.
3
Just three stories.
4
The first story is about connecting the dots.
5
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.
6
It was pretty scary at the time but looking back it was one of the best decisions I ever made.
7
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 far more interesting.
8
Reed college at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country.
9

10
None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life, but 10 years later when we were designing the first macintosh computer, it all came back to me.
11
If I had never dropped out, personal computers might not have had the wonderful typography that they do.
12
Of course it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college, but it was very very clear looking backwards.
13
So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
14
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.
15
My second story is about love and loss.
16
I was lucky - I found what I loved to do early in life.
17
Woz and started Apple in my parents' garage when I was 20 and in ten years Apple had grown from just the 2 of us in a garage into a 2 billion dollar company with over 4000 employees.

19
What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone.
20

22
I'd been rejected but I still loved what I did.
23
I didn't see it then, but turned out that getting fired from apple was the best thing that could have ever happened to me.
24

25
It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.
26
During the next five years, I started a company named NeXt, another company named Pixar and it's now the most successful animation studio in the world.
27
I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did.
28
You've got to find what you love.
29
Your work is gonna fill a large part of your life and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work.
30
And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.
31
If you haven't found it yet, keep looking.
32
As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.
33
My third story is about death.
34
If you live each day as if it was your last, some day you'll most certainly be right.
35
For the past 33 years, I've looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself: If today were the last day of my life, would I wanna do what I am about to do today?
36
Because almost everything, all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarassment or failure, these things just fall away in the face of death.
37
Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.
38
There is no reason not to follow your hearts.
39
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
40
Don't let the noise of other's opinions drown out your own inner voice.

Have the courage to follow your heart and intuition: They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
42
Everything else is secondary.
43
Stay hungry, stay foolish.
44
Thank you all very much.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
