1
Thank you.
2
I'm honored to be with you today for your commencement from one of the finest universities in the world.
3
Truth be told, I never graduated from college, and this is the closest I've ever gotten to a college graduation.
4
Today, I want to tell you three stories from my life.
5
That's it.
6
No big deal.
7
Just three stories.
8
The first story is about connecting the dots.
9
I dropped out of Reed College after the first six months,
10
but then stayed around as a drop -in for another 18 months or so before I really quit.
11
So why'd I drop out?
12
It started before I was born.
13
My biological mother was a young, unwed graduate student, and she decided to put me up for adoption.
14
She felt very strongly that I should be adopted by college graduates,
15
so everything was all set for me to be adopted at birth by a lawyer and his wife.
16
Except that when I popped out, they decided at the last minute that they really wanted a girl.
17
So my parents, who were on a waiting list, got a call in the middle of the night asking, asking, we've got an unexpected baby boy.
18
Do you want him?
19
They said, of course.
20
My biological mother found out later that my mother had never graduated from college
21
and that my father had never graduated from high school.
22
She refused to sign the final adoption papers.
23
She only relented a few months later when my parents promised that I would go to college.
24
This was the start in my life.
25
And 17 years later, I did go to college.
26
But I naively chose a college that was almost as expensive as Stanford.
27
And all of my working class parents' savings were being spent on my college tuition.
28
After six months, I couldn't see the value in it.
29
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.
30
And here I was, spending all the money my parents had saved their entire life.
31
So I decided to drop out and trust that it would all work out okay.
32
It was pretty scary at the time, but looking back, it was one of the best decisions I ever made.
33
The minute I dropped out, I could stop taking the required classes that didn't interest me
34
and begin dropping in on the ones that looked far more interesting.
35
It wasn't all romantic.
36
I didn't have a dorm room, so I slept on the floor in friends' rooms.
37
I returned Coke bottles for the five -cent deposits to buy food with, and I would walk the seven miles across town every Sunday
38
night to get one good meal a week at the Hare Krishna temple.
39
I loved it.
40
And much of what I stumbled into by following my curiosity and intuition turned out to be priceless later on.
41
Let me give you one example.
42
Reed College at that time offered perhaps the best calligraphy instruction in the country.
43
Throughout the campus, every poster, every label on every drawer was beautifully hand -calligraphed.
44
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.
45
I learned about serif and sans -serif typefaces, about varying the amount of space between different letter combinations, about what makes great typography great.
46
It was beautiful, historical, artistically subtle in a way that science can't capture, and I found it fascinating.
47
None of this had even a hope of any practical application in my life.
48
But ten years later, when we were designing the first Macintosh computer, it all came back to me.
49
And we designed it all into the Mac.
50
It was the first computer with beautiful typography.
51
If I had never dropped in on that single course in college, the Mac would have never had multiple typefaces or proportionally spaced fonts.
52
And since Windows just copied the Mac, it's likely that no personal computer would have them.
53
If I had never dropped out, I would have never dropped in on that calligraphy class,
54
and personal computers might not have the wonderful typography that they do.
55
Of course, it was impossible to connect the dots looking forward when I was in college.
56
But it was very, very clear looking backwards 10 years later.
57
Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward.
58
You can only connect them looking backwards.
59
So you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
60
You have to trust in something.
61
Your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever.
62
Because believing that the dots will connect down the road...
63
will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well -worn path, and that will make all the difference.
64
My second story is about love and loss.
65
I was lucky.
66
I found what I loved to do early in life.
67
Waz and I started Apple in my parents' garage when I was 20.
68
We worked hard, and in 10 years,
69
Apple had grown from just the two of us in a garage into a $2 billion company with over 4 ,000 employees.
70
We'd just released our finest creation, the Macintosh, a year earlier, and I'd just turned 30.
71
And then I got fired.
72
How can you get fired from a company you started?
73
Well, as Apple grew, we hired someone who I thought was very talented to run the company with me.
74
And for the first year or so, things went well.
75
But then our visions of the future began to diverge, and eventually we had a falling out.
76
When we did, our board of directors sided with him.
77
And so at 30, I was out, and very publicly out.
78
What had been the focus of my entire adult life was gone, and it was devastating.
79
I really didn't know what to do for a few months.
80
I felt that I had let the previous generation of entrepreneurs down, that I had dropped the baton as it was being passed to me.
81
I met with David Packard and Bob Noyce and tried to apologize for screwing up so badly.
82
I was a very public failure, and I even thought about running away from the valley.
83
But something slowly began to dawn on me.
84
I still loved what I did.
85
The turn of events at Apple had not changed that one bit.
86
I'd been rejected, but I was still in love.
87
And so I decided to start over.
88
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.
89
The heaviness of being successful was replaced by the lightness of being a beginner again, less sure about everything.
90
It freed me to enter one of the most creative periods of my life.
91
During the next five years, I started a company named Next,
92
another company named Pixar, and fell in love with an amazing woman who would become my wife.
93
Pixar went on to create the world's first computer animated feature film, Toy Story, and is now the most successful animation studio in the world.
94
In a remarkable turn of events, Apple bought Next, and I returned to Apple,
95
and the technology we developed at Next is at the heart of Apple's current renaissance, and Lorene and I have a wonderful family together.
96
I'm pretty sure none of this would have happened if I hadn't been fired from Apple.
97
It was awful -tasting medicine, but I guess the patient needed it.
98
Sometimes life's going to hit you in the head with a brick.
99
Don't lose faith.
100
I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did.
101
You've got to find what you love, and that is as true for work as it is for your lovers.
102
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life,
103
and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work,
104
and the only way to do great work is to love what you do.
105
If you haven't found it yet, keep looking and don't settle.
106
As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it.
107
And like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on.
108
So keep looking.
109
Don't settle.
110
My third story is about death.
111
When I was 17, I read a quote that went something like, if you live each day as if it was your last,
112
someday you'll most certainly be right.
113
It made an impression on me, and since then, for the past 33 years, I have looked in the mirror every morning and asked myself,
114
if today were the last day of my life, would I want to do what I am about to do today?
115
And whenever the answer has been no for too many days in a row, I know I need to change something.
116
Remembering
117
that I'll be dead soon is the most important tool I've ever encountered to help me make the big choices in life.
118
Because almost everything, all external expectations, all pride, all fear of embarrassment or failure, these things just fall away in the face of death,
119
leaving only what is truly important.
120
Remembering
121
that you are going to die is the best way
122
I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose.
123
You are already naked.
124
There is no reason not to follow your heart.
125
About a year ago, I was diagnosed with cancer.
126
I had a scan at 7 .30 in the morning, and it clearly showed a tumor on my pancreas.
127
I didn't even know what a pancreas was.
128
The doctors told me this was almost certainly a type of cancer
129
that is incurable and that I should expect to live no longer than three to six months.
130
My doctor advised me to go home and get my affairs in order, which is doctor's code for prepare to die.
131
It means to try and tell your kids everything.
132
you thought you'd have the next 10 years to tell them in just a few months.
133
It means to make sure everything is buttoned up so that it will be as easy as possible for your family.
134
It means to say your goodbyes.
135
I live with that diagnosis all day.
136
Later that evening, I had a biopsy where they stuck an endoscope down my throat, through my stomach and into my intestines,
137
put a needle into my pancreas and got a few cells from the tumor.
138
I was sedated, but my wife, who was there, told me that when they viewed the cells under a microscope,
139
the doctor started crying, because it turned out to be a very rare form of pancreatic cancer that is curable with surgery.
140
I had the surgery, and thankfully, I'm fine now.
141
This was the closest I've been to facing death, and I hope it's the closest I get for a few more decades.
142
Having lived through it, I can now say this to you with a bit more certainty than
143
when death was a useful but purely intellectual concept.
144
No one wants to die.
145
Even people who want to go to heaven don't want to die to get there.
146
And yet, death is the destination we all share.
147
No one has ever escaped it.
148
And that is as it should be because death is very likely the single best invention of life.
149
It's life's change agent.
150
It clears out the old to make way for the new.
151
Right now, the new is you.
152
But someday, not too long from now, you will gradually become the old and be cleared away.
153
Sorry to be so dramatic, but it's quite true.
154
Your time is limited, so don't waste it living someone else's life.
155
Don't be trapped by dogma, which is living with the results of other people's thinking.
156
Don't let the noise of others' opinions drown out your own inner voice.
157
And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition.
158
They somehow already know what you truly want to become.
159
Everything else is secondary.
160
When I was young, there was an amazing publication called The Whole Earth Catalog, which was one of the Bibles of my generation.
161
It was created by a fellow named Stuart Brand, not far from here in Menlo Park, and he brought it to life with his poetic touch.
162
This was in the late 60s, before personal computers and desktop publishing, so it was all made with typewriters, scissors, and Polaroid cameras.
163
It was sort of like Google in paperback form, 35 years before Google came along.
164
It was idealistic, overflowing with neat tools and great notions.
165
Stewart and his team put out several issues of the Whole Earth Catalog, and then, when it had run its course,
166
they put out a final issue.
167
It was the mid -1970s, and I was your age.
168
On the back cover of their final issue was a photograph of an early morning country road,
169
the kind you might find yourself hitchhiking on if you were so adventurous.
170
Beneath it were the words, stay hungry, stay foolish.
171
It was their farewell message as they signed off.
172
Stay hungry, stay foolish.
173
And I have always wished that for myself.
174
And now, as you graduate to begin anew, I wish that for you.
175
Stay hungry, stay foolish.
176
Thank you all very much.
177
Stay hungry, stay foolish.

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.
