In his legendary 2005 Stanford commencement speech, Steve Jobs shared life-changing wisdom on how to live with purpose, authenticity, and courage. 🌍💡Drawing from his own experiences—including a pivotal moment in his youth and his battle with pancreatic cancer—Jobs reflects on the transformative power of confronting mortality.
 He explains how asking one simple question each day reshaped his life: “If today were my last day, would I do what I am about to do?”Through heartfelt stories and profound insights, Jobs reveals how the awareness of death strips away what doesn’t matter—societal expectations, fear, and distractions—leaving only what truly counts. He challenges us to resist living someone else’s dream, to reject dogma, and to trust our heart and intuition to lead us to a life of fulfillment.
🔑 Key Takeaways:
- Ask yourself daily: "If today were my last day, would I do what I am about to do?"
- Mortality as a motivator: How the awareness of death brings clarity and focus.
- Live authentically: Free yourself from external pressures and societal expectations.
- Follow your intuition: Trust your inner voice to guide you toward purpose and fulfillment.
- Time is finite: Don’t waste it living someone else’s dream.
Jobs’ timeless message to the Stanford graduates—and to all of us—is a powerful call to live fearlessly and authentically, embracing the finite gift of time to pursue what truly matters.
