Steve Jobs Stanford University Commencement Speech Highlights
“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.” Steve Jobs
Here are the highlights of Steve Jobs Commencement Speech
Connect the dots – You can only connect the dots of the past not of the future. For that reason, we must have trust in our intuition that for everything we do the dots will connect in our future in a meaningful way. Trust that it’ll all work out okay.
Do what you love and if you haven’t found it keep searching. This is important. Refer to the above quote. (more…)

Ambition: Leading with Gratitude
by Seth Buechley “Great ambition is the passion of a great character. Those endowed with it may perform very good or very bad acts. All depends on the principles which direct them.” Napoleon Bonaparte
Seth Buechley is a serial entrepreneur and found ambition very early in life, in his own unique way. Having grown up in a commune he learnt the art of work early on in life. While there are certain negatives of such an upbringing, as he explains, life in the commune developed within him a strong work ethic.

Passion & Purpose, Patience & Persistence
“Patience, persistence and perspiration make an unbeatable combination for success.” Napoleon Hill
I believe it is okay to not be patient if the resource that is utilised doesn’t bring with it any greater value or benefit towards the life you wish to live. Learn to say no.
However, sometimes we have to tolerate waiting or practice patience even when things are not enjoyable or as we’d truly with to be doing. Suck it up but understand why.
As it comes to living the life you wish to life patience and persistence is often a must. A skill that will allow you to accomplish what you set out to achieve. How we do that? I share my thoughts in this episode @ The Hidden Why.
