Video: The Jobs speech

Video: Steve Jobs on living every day like it’s your last, joining the dots and more 

Spent an amazing afternoon yesterday. Together with 1 600 others at the Sandton Convention Centre, was treated to three hours of Robin Sharma. He referred a lot to the late Steve Jobs. Which reminded me of one of the greatest speeches of the modern era. Here’s the video.

Steve Jobs’s Commencement Speech to the Stanford University Class of 2005. Invest the next 15 minutes in watching it. Even if you’ve seen it before. The late Jobs’s words never fail to inspire me. Interestingly, Jobs was so honoured to have been asked to do it that he originally asked Aaron Sorkin (writer of West Wing among others) to help him with it. After agreeing, Sorkin didn’t follow through. So Jobs wrote it himself.
