As I've begun my life again from scratch this year - at 60 - I am happier and more committed to the GREAT deeply meaningful work coming towards me now. It took a while to let go of the past and find the courage and trust to leap - LIVE from the HEART! Listen to your intuition! And don't EVER settle! Thank you Steve!

Don't say, "you are too old,". Let me do what thrills and excites me.

I am inspired and energized every time I listen to this speech! Thank you Steve for sharing such valuable lessons.

What inspired me was the simplicity of Steve's speech. A man of humble beginnings,adopted by uneducated parents who promised his birth mother that Steve would go to college. But his real education, valuable lessons learned, actually occurred outside the "official" classroom, by dropping in on classes he loved and learned from. He seemed to be very humble though brilliant, and kind; not spoiled by his tremendous monetary success. Very inspiring!

I am a high school secretary. Some days I wonder what I am doing there? This video reminds me that I love what I do even though it is hard some days. I never planned to do this job, it just kind of fell to me. (karma) I feel blessed everyday and love being with the kids and watching them soar. Steve Jobs reminded me of this.

Yes the video is certainly inspiring but what troubles me is that the many brilliant minds who are devising these cell phones and laptops (that I can find) are NOT doing anything about diffusing the electro-magnetic energy in them. Everywhere people, kids and even babies have cell phones to their undeveloped brains and laptops on their laps. Where will the cheering go when brain tumors and infertility start to show up in our precious young children?? Who is working to make toxic-free cell phones? Or when will they come with the dangers listed on them?
That is someone I will celebrate! (No, I don't have a cellphone....life is very fulfilling without one!)

previously , i was being hungry and pretending to be wise. but i was a fool. Now i got it -it's wise to be foolish.....

What inspired me in this message is the simplicity of the message. Some 45 years ago,I met 3 disciples of the famous early 20th century French philosopher,cardiologist & philantropist Dr Roger Godel whose message was that you can only succeed in life if you undertake what you really love & that life is a journey of illimited knowledge if
you have an open mind. I think that was the great message of this giant at the dawn of the 21rst century. J.O.B

Follow your heart, always listen to your inner voice & just keep staying hungry as well as foolish because you never know what you'll be learning along the way, but as Steve Jobs put it, you'll eventually connect the dots in the future when you somehow look backwards! This is a really inspiring speech!!!

Steve Jobs reminds the Standford students that the worlwide company he created started in a little workshop with a man who had a genuine interest in computers an typography.He who was not running after success, recognition and glamour.Find your genuine interest first, says he, and you will be blessed in return by a happy and successful life. A life lesson and a gift given by a man who knew he might soon pass away to promising young people, so they may fully realize their creative potential.
