What can I say about this brilliant, creative, inspiring GENIUS that you all don't already know!?! He is definitely the man I owe for making life easier on my not so techie savvy self. But besides that, this man is truly inspirational and shares an amazing story we all can learn from. I received an email from my mother back in April that had the subject, "Interesting story" so I continued to click on the link, http://news.stanford.edu/news/2005/june15/jobs-061505.html and it was the first time I got a glimpse into Steve Jobs' personal life. My mother sends me countless inspirational emails, but this one definitely hit me in a different way because there is something so magnetizing about a success story that holds a bit of strife that is overcome through such strength and motivation. Steve Jobs was not only a visionary innovator for Apple, but a man who represents stepping out of the box, pushing the limits, and not allowing for any excuse for an individual to excel.
"Sometimes life hits you in the head with a brick. Don't lose faith. I'm convinced that the only thing that kept me going was that I loved what I did. You've got to find what you love. And that is as true for your work as it is for your lovers. Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do. If you haven't found it yet, keep looking. Don't settle. As with all matters of the heart, you'll know when you find it. And, like any great relationship, it just gets better and better as the years roll on. So keep looking until you find it. Don't settle."
