The wwworld according to Steve Jobs

Tyler Reed shared this video, Steve Jobs’ Vision of the World, on one of the many social networks we’re connected on. Was it Facebook, Twitter or Google+? It doesn’t matter.

This video reminded me of the advice my parents gave me…

Dad:

When you grow up you tend to get told the world is the way it is and you’re life is just to live your life inside the world. Try not to bash into the walls too much. Try to have a nice family, have fun, save a little money.

Mom:

That’s a very limited life. Life can be much broader once you discover one simple fact: Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you and you can change it, you can influence it, you can build your own things that other people can use.

Once you learn that, you’ll never be the same again.

Now go forth and do both 🙂
